Found & Lost Michael R Guerin

Our life seems to take place against a constant backdrop of finding and losing those "things" (both big and small) which, upon reflection, are deeply significant and profound. Yes, all of life is a constant navigation on the sea of change. But how one deals with change and what is ultimately "changed" becomes the food for thought which hopefully leads us back to our truest sense of self.

This new collection of 33 poems take their inspiration from the following quote from J Krishnamurti... "Don't you want to find out if it is possible to live in this world richly, fully, happily, creatively, without the destructive drive of ambition and competition? Don't you want to know how to live so that your life will not destroy another or cast a shadow across their path?"

So do you dare to find your truest self? And what will you find once the day is done?
