      "Sarah Carlson's poetry reveals a deeply personal yet universal journey; a path of healing that leads to union with the Divine. Her words are medicine."-- Daniel Gibbons, D.O."With these poems and photographs, Sarah welcomes the fullness of her life and shows us how to embrace our own life journeys. Sarah's capacity to enter fully into the present moment, noticing and embracing what enlarges our capacity to do the same. Healing, wisdom, joy, and peace are the fruits of that process. Thank you, Sarah, for sharing yourself with all of us in these generous and personal poems."-- The Reverend Ann Kidder"With her gently uplifting poetry and photographs, set in the sylvan foothills of western Maine, Sarah Carlson invites the reader to be present, to become aware of grandeur and beauty, to come to terms with pain and loss, and to know the experience of health."-- Jonathan M. Borkum, Ph.D.
