Every life is a story, and every story a journey. We are born, our story begins, and life happens. Each story develops over time from infancy through adulthood and from changes due to choices we make and many times by events over which we have no control. How our story ends is determined by how we react to those events. It is the life''s lessons and what we learn from them that help us grow, gain experience and wisdom, and move us along our journey. We decide if we are in charge of our destiny or if destiny is in charge of us. We drift aimlessly, or we paddle in the direction of our goals.

Lori Green has always felt a strong connection to the moon-that majestic, pale creature that floats on the outlying edges of the night sky. While perusing an old copy of Farmers' Almanac, she learned that each cycle of the moon is thematically tied to the rhythms of the natural world. She wondered if she could use the moon as a guide to deliver her to a larger sense of wellness.Outlier: The Moon as Guide to Source and Stillness is a collection of her personal discoveries-a year's worth of poetry and lists, prose and memoir, which records her apprenticeship with the moon.Tracking the seasonal wisdom of each lunar passage, Lori reflects on a thematic intention (new moon), feeds its promise (waxing moon), embraces the fruition (full moon), and surrenders once again into the arms of life (waning moon). Similarly, this observance of the moon's rhythm and flow invites readers to get in tune with the world around them and listen to their own bodies and hearts to detect ways in which they may need greater balance or awareness. Lori's collection has the power to deepen one's experience with the gifts of this moon-based sensibility, a perspective offering both spaciousness and connection, just like the moon itself.

Reconnecting to your soul will allow you to see the highest meaning and understanding of all circumstances. Just like any other skill, this comes with practice. As you evolve your connection to your soul, shed your ego, and reintegrate the soul to self, you will notice that your perspective shifts. At this rate, we no will longer see people''s actions as aggressive attacks but as mirrored images of their own personal insecurities. We no longer see our pain as pain, but as a lesson. We no longer see a headache as a headache, but as a block to our crown chakra. We no longer see our choices in this life as punishment; we see them as part of the plan. We are no longer the victims of our circumstances but the divine creators of our reality and circumstances. We no longer dwell in the physical events that created us because we understand the growth, lesson, and plan. It is a beautiful vision to share with the world and part of what drives me to do what I do. If we could all view the world through our soul''s eyes, we would experience this life in a completely different form.
