The stories are full of humor, irony, and spiritual insight. The author reflects on how each one speaks to the mind and heart in a way that promotes a healthy spirituality. The book also seeks to transcend the destructive religious dividing walls among people as a world community. Each story and reflection is followed by a selection from the author's poetry.
