Sobre este artículo
This book is in very good condition. There is no wear on the front, back, edges, and spine of the cover boards. There is no bumping or fraying, and the pages are clear of markings. The pages are white, crisp and clear.

As Mary Oliver puts it, "What is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" In other words, the container is not an end in itself, but exists for the sake of your deeper and fullest life, which you largely do not know about yourself! Far too many people just keep doing repair work on the container itself and never "throw their nets into the deep" (John 21:6) to bring in the huge catch that awaits them...." - Chapter One from Falling Upward: A Spirituality for the Two Halves of Life
