This book is poetry page to page. Every word is deliberately chosen to make you feel something special. You could open to page and be able to quote something that you can apply to your life. The son and mother relationship in this book is truly beautiful and inspiring. It’s comforting but it also challenges your emotions. Truly a work of art.
