Opis

We all have something in our lives that we are searching for. Sometimes we know what it is and sometimes we do not. But throughout our search we must create our own path to discovery-that is something no one can help us with. And whether you believe in God or chance or the Universe, there are signs along the way that, if we open our hearts and minds to the seemingly impossible in life and notice them, allow for all kinds of miracles to happen. In The Wiseman Tales, author Tivadar Kovacs reminds us that the ones who stay true to themselves, who are willing to take time to understand the divine, are the ones who will inevitably find happiness...often in the most unexpected places. In this collection of fifteen mysteriously wondrous stories, Kovacs explores the richness of our being and the hidden corners where surprising revelations change life in extraordinary ways. "The Wiseman Tales" takes readers on a journey through the map of the human heart via glimpses of lives lived, such as the tale of a man who finds the power of life while lost in a desert, and the story of an old woman whose grandson's death in battle spurs a most unusual reunion. There's the account of a letter in a space capsule that tells the fate of man, the legend of a young bride who lives in a lake, and the interesting events that happen when opportunity knocks. The stories probe the interconnectedness of humankind, both with each other and a life force far greater than ourselves. While examining the world around us, The Wiseman Tales looks inward, illuminating the truths happening both around us and within. An uplifting and thought provoking series of metaphysical and spiritual encounters perfect for all ages, Kovacs' debut is an astonishing trip through the labyrinthine corridors of the human condition that illuminates the dark, hidden spaces where beauty can often be overlooked. Light-hearted yet full of surprising depth and resonance, The Wiseman Tales is a spirited collection about the adventure and joy inherent all around us-all we need do is pay attention to find them.
