Reseña del editor
True Tales Inspired by an Enchanted Lake This collection of short stories and whimsical drawings in Woven of Water inspires the reader to discover meaning amid the loves and losses of growing up, growing old, and all the events in between. By taking this book in hand, you will create time for a personal retreat with the exquisite beauty of nature as your host. The reward, the splendor of grateful living, is priceless. I give my deep gratitude to everyone over the last ten years who reminded me that it took courage, not perfection, to offer the world a written expression of love. ____________________ "Woven of Water is a gem. Luisa Adams coaxes ten penetrating insights from the seemingly ordinary world of a small mountain lake. She transmits profound meaning from simple images with her eye for the sacred, her focus on sensual detail and an extremely talented pen - this little book will be on your bed stand for a long time." ~ Terry Pearce Founder/President of Leadership Communications, author of Leading Out Loud ____________________ "Say, you happen to drive past Luisa's lake in the woods, would you recognize it as a place of enchantment? The answer will depend on the visual acuity of your heart. The adventure you find may not be the adventure you seek; it wasn't for Luisa Adams in Woven of Water. And yet - like a water lily rising from the muddy bottom of the lake - for you as for her, whatever life brings can blossom forth into the splendor of grateful living." ~ Brother David Stiendl-Rast Benedictine monk, author of Gratefulness, the Heart of Prayer, lecturer, co-founder of www.gratefulness.org ____________________ "Woven of Water immerses the reader in a mirrored landscape of inner and outer beauty. Luisa Adams' years of retreating for a month of solitude at an enchanted lake have yielded a sensitive collection of compelling stories and deep reflective insights. Her commitment inspires the reader to connect to nature, time, and daily life with fresh eyes and refreshed perspective on what truly matters." ~ Carolyn Foster Coach, Retreat Leader, and author of The Family Patterns Workbook
