Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of writings represents a philosopher's response to various experiences throughout a long adult life. A search for meaning and guiding principles for action thread the narrative through short stories, poems and more formalised philosophical reflection. Consideration of love in many of its forms, anxiety, grief, guilt, jealousy, loneliness, disappointment, happiness and death are all expressed here. From this we are led ultimately to a sure conviction that a true and eternal reality, usually only supposed beyond our experience, can be brought within our present world. A penetrating take on life and a rich source of wisdom about how to live well.
