Synopsis

This book presents a set of reflections on common linguistic expressions and everyday habits and tendencies, the meaning of which is often taken for granted. Through literary expression and observation, an attempt is made to assess the deeper significance behind what we most commonly say and how we most commonly act regarding our engagement with the world. Thus, why we utter phrases such as "To age gracefully," "To blow one's lid," or "To live life to the fullest." Concerning habits, why we over check doors and locks, why we can’t help staring into passing cars, and why we get offended, perceiving others to be insulting. This collection is a door into a world that encourages people to cultivate wisdom, along with a greater awareness of who one is and how one chooses to act in any given moment.
