Every challenge, every heartache, every pain is encouraging you to journey forward, closer to the truth of your destiny. With each battle won against your mind you grow stronger as you align with the greatest version of yourself. And as you step bravely toward this pure loving soul, you become more confident, more empowered, and more at peace as you harness the magic of the Universe that surrounds you. This spiritual poetry book explores the hardships we face throughout our life and inspires you to search within to find the tools you need to survive. Like the lotus flower who grows through mud yet rises everyday to greet the sunshine without a slither of darkness upon its petals, you will too, move through your life with grace, resilience and beauty. And still, the Lotus Flower Blooms. From the Author: The inspiration to write this poetry book came to me when reflecting on my journal entries from the last 5 years. The journey for a creative soul can be lonely at times, we are always searching for motivation and encouraging signs from the Universe to keep going, despite the struggles that we face. No matter how many times we are pushed down in our life, we need to rise again. We need to persevere and believe in ourselves because if not, we are denying the voice of our soul. We are ignoring the cravings of our authentic self. And this is not the pathway to happiness. The journey to life fulfillment is through doing the things that bring us joy. It's through allowing our soul to dream and to dance in the magical realm of existence. But not always are we so optimistic about our life path, especially when faced with so many challenges. So, I wanted to create a poetry book that would soothe your current emotions and encourage you to keep going, to live your best life! And Still the Lotus Flower Blooms is a collection of short inspirational poems with spiritual themes that will build up the courage within to never give up. Love Phoebe
