As our modern day living becomes more complicated, confusing and dangerous, the need for every individual to look within for answers and guidance becomes ever greater. In this book of esoteric poems/meditations, musician and author Todd Green addresses both the practical and spiritual aspects of living a meaningful life in these modern times. Insights and truths gleaned from a lifetime of studying many of the world's religious and musical traditions are distilled into understandable prose that touches the heart and soul. Why poetry? The author believes that just like music, poetry is absorbed directly into our hearts without being over-analyzed by our intellect. There, simple truths are recognized by our souls and gently integrated as we strive to make our lives more meaningful. Reading one of these 365 inspirational and thought-provoking poems and meditations as you unwind before going to sleep is a great way to feed your soul and challenge yourself in your quest for self-improvement in the coming year. A resident of the Lake Tahoe area, where nature's beautiful surroundings serve as inspiration, multi-instrumentalist Todd Green performs concerts and educational clinics around the United States and Canada on over 30 acoustic string, flute and percussion instruments from around the world. As with his poetry, his musical mission is one of bridge-building between people, or as he likes to put it: "To help bring down the barriers that divide us by experiencing other cultures through their music".
