Week 15 & 16: Don Miguel Ruiz & The Gift of Literacy

This week you're treated to a double gratitude entry while I play catch up. For week 15, I'm so glad to have discovered the author Don Miguel Ruiz while browsing through books at Chapters last year. I started with his well known book The Four Agreements, and enthusiastically added The Mastery of Love and The Voice of Knowledge to my collection as well.

All of his books are simple and easy to understand, and contains so much timeless wisdom too! They've definitely changed my life for the better, giving me new lenses to interpret the world and a better understanding of the human condition. If you'd like to borrow his books from me, just let me know and I'd be glad to share them with you! :)

On a related note for this week is my gratitude for the gift of literacy. Knowing to read and write has been the best present ever, unlocking the door to limitless adventure and discovery without and within. It has also allowed me to communicate and receive emotions, feelings, ideas and thoughts with others from near to far, connecting me to everyone in this grand family of humanity.

I know many others are not as fortunate as me, and that's why I'm committed to a free daily click at The Literacy Site, where sponsors fund programs to provide books to children in need around the world. Join in this literacy promotion by clicking on this link today and everyday!
