FROM WHERE YOU ARE . . . TO WHERE YOU WANT TO BE What Will Move Your Compass? Jonathan, the main character, escapes his suburban life after a
tragedy
that alters his plans for the future. Paralyzed by grief, he decides to
journey across the globe in an
effort to realign his inner compass. He sets off with a backpack
leaving behind his career, friends, family, and home. His travels begin
in the dry desert of Nevada, and continue
on to the pristine mountains of the Adirondacks, and then to a medieval
village in Romania. In each destination Jonathan encounters one
pivotal person who offers a major life lesson, and he begins to realize
that each individual was placed there for a reason. The Compass is a metaphor for
the journey of our lives. In the tradition of The Alchemist, The
Compass
provides you with specific life lessons about authenticity,
self-empowerment, and believing in your dreams. As humans we are all
connected -- by love, pain, and sometimes
even by tragedies or events we cannot control. Each one of us travels a
unique path, yet we are linked by experiences and
emotions. In this connectedness, there is life. pub date: 2009-06-02 | hardcover | 9781593155421 |
