We enjoy indescribable freedom today - we live where we want, spend our lives with people we choose, decide on our own careers, and select a religion that makes us feel fulfilled. Yet troubling paradoxes are emerging from this hard-won autonomy. We experience career dissatisfaction and spiritual conflict and isolation. Happiness, it turns out, is not predicated on doing anything we want, whenever we want - it comes from somewhere else. In Lost and Found, the beloved and highly respected Dr. Arthur Caliandro, teaches us how to find the personal freedom and happiness that is within our grasp. Drawing from the world's great spiritual traditions, Dr. Caliandro gives us core truths that have stood the test of time - the truths that we come back to time and again, even as cultures evolve. He also explores life's mysterious coincidences - the times when we're thinking about someone and he or she calls, or the many times we're suddenly in the right place at the right time. In Lost and Found, Dr. Caliandro shows us that the purpose of life is to grow spiritually, mentally, and emotionally, and that the path to happiness and true freedom does indeed lie open before us. Chapters include: * Don't Let Fear Stall Your Life * Good Anger, Bad Anger * Get Stabilized and Get Centered * Find the Power to Conquer Worry * Never Lose Faith in Kindness * Put the Power of Persistence to Work for You * Live Life With Boldness * Discover Your Right Place in the World * See the Sacred in the Ordinary * Keep Dusting off Your Dreams * Tap the Wisdom of the Ages * Bringing Spirituality into the Workplace * How to Make Spiritual Sense of Suffering * Remember, You Are Stronger than You Think * The Power of "Yes" * The Best Is About to Happen

This is just one of the many lessons Dr. Arthur Caliandro gives in his insightful, thoughtful, and incredibly wise book, Lost and Found. In a time when lifestyle choices are plentiful and the standards for a good life are high, it is easy to lose sight of what makes us truly happy. But all the same, true happiness is within our grasp.
Through his many years as senior minister of the Marble Collegiate Church in New York City, Dr. Caliandro has learned a great deal about the pursuit of human happiness and spiritual growth from his many parishioners and friends as they each follow their personal path towards greater happiness with themselves and with life--as well as a greater connection to their faith.
In Lost and Found, Dr. Caliandro relates a host of parables, stories, and anecdotes that bring forth the personal freedom that leads to happiness. From banishing worry to cultivating a loving heart to living in the present, his simple, unique, and profound insights teach us how to:
- Embrace struggle
- Understand the difference between good and bad anger
- Be present in every moment
- Find the strength to forgive
This invaluable book shows us that our greatest assets, opportunities, and adventures lie within our reach every day--and explains how we can access this potential. Here are ways to lift ourselves to a new level of happiness, freedom, and personal growth--and live a life that is triumphant.
