Ward published her third book: Poems and Reflections For A Better Life December 22, 2006 - Winter Solstice Someone who is original comes up with things that no one has thought of. Imagination often means that the person visualizes things quite differently that the way they appear in 'the real world'. The message in this book "Poems and Reflections For A Better Life", is about LIVING and LOVING in a creative and passionate way, and how nurturing and combining creativity and imagination, all of us can co-create a better life, a better community and a better world. Illusion is a false idea, belief or impression of reality. But a BETTER WORLD, PEACE, HEALTH, HARMONY, HAPPINESS, FAIRNESS and LOVE are not delusions, hallucinations or self-deceptions. These words need to be 'activated' by us to bring them to life. A better world for everyone is real, is truth, is always an option, is a choice, a flame... It all begins with one spark, it all begins with YOU and I. * * * * * To order a copy of the book now

Many have chosen to co-create together a voluntary and individual momentum that has set-up free the force of love within, putting wings to all human heart's desires for fairness, justice, peace and happiness, facilitating the natural process of adaptation and respectful cohabitation with all living things. We are too our own heroes, we are too our own angels, we are our only real possession, we are our truth, and by nurturing this ‘truth’ with love we will give PEACE a chance. Nurturing PEACE, one of the most noble goals of humanity, makes you see beyond the imposition or abolition of ideologies, cultures, rituals, epics, agendas and adventures that might have once marked philosophical 'understandings' or 'misunderstandings' among humans or nations. Peace is one of these words that only by "activating it" comes to life. Blessed are the peacemakers, blessed are those who host peace in their minds, their words, their work, their actions, their feelings, their dreams, their choices, their writings, their eyes, their silence, their energy and their hearts. For only by practicing PEACE we'll endure it. For not going against anything but rather by "planting the seeds" of the world we want to live in, Paradise On Earth will soon be ours. |
