in Minneapolis, MN. Be A Light is offered as a perennial inspirational ''companion'' book for those who are on a journey of hope, self-healing, personal illumination, and purposeful world service. There are three types of essays in this book: philosophy, how-to, and storytelling. In the perennial tradition of Anne Morrow Lindberg's Gifts from the Sea and Kahlil Gibran's The Prophet, this book is meant to be a life-long friend that will be read over and over. Be A Light is a book that sits on the nightstand or near your favorite chair, and never ends up in a garage sale. Each essay stands on its own as a piece to be dipped into when one wants a short, complete, and nourishing read at the beginning or the end of a day, but there is also a message that implicitly runs through the book as a whole. The unifying message of Be A Light, in essence, is: ''Heal the wounds of your past, break out of your fears, discover your life purpose, and serve the world with all your heart.''
