Synopsis

Jewels for the Journey will inspire you. All of us desire a fulfilled, enriched, and engaged life. We hunger for a life that brings us satisfaction, validates our worth, and give us a sense of purpose. Life, however can be challenging and at times doesn't turn out as you've planned. If not careful, these difficulties can extinguish your passion, rob you of your hope, and steal your dreams. Hardship and difficulties are unavoidable; however the key to your fulfilment in life is not the absence of these challenges, but the successful navigation of them. The Jewels for the journey is a thought provoking, whimsical, funny and at times touching book designed to offer practical insights on everyday difficulties. It challenges the reader to view problems as learning opportunities. Each of our hardships, when overcome, can produce gems of wisdom that are far more valuable than emeralds and rubies. It's what old folk use to mean when they would say "I wouldn't take nothing for my journey." Your passion can be rekindled, your hope restored, and your dreams fulfilled as you expose Jewels on your Journey.
