Waking Up to This Day: Seeing the Beauty Right Before Us
By Paula D'Arcy
Review: I was distracted when I started to read Waking Up to This Day. I struggled to focus on the words. But soon Paula D'Arcy's easy prose brought me in and calmed my racing mind. Appropriately, D'Arcy aims to show her readers how to be in the present moment and focus on what is really important in life with this book.
D'Arcy does so through stories and wisdom from a variety of sources. She writes about universal themes, speaking to all who have ever confronted tragedy, change, an unexpected detour, or some other challenge. And her concise chapters not only remind you what matters but also leave you ample time to appreciate it.—Megan Sweas, Associate Editor, U.S. CATHOLIC
Orbis Books says: Inspiring insights on being awake and aware in good times and bad, and on realizing the grace and goodness that is already ours.
