Each Step Is The Journey

We all have goals, hopes and dreams. Something we strive and live for. However, for Jack Reilly, he existed. Day in and day out, his purpose in life was to get through each and every day unnoticed. That was until his milestone fiftieth birthday, when his life came crashing down. Alone, afraid and uncertain, he was ready to throw in the towel. Then, at the last moment, Jack wants to live. Left unconscious, he has an out of body experience. He witnesses what most of us long for and will never obtain. A walk with Jesus. Together, side by side, Jack is enlightened by what his life was all about and what was to become of his remaining years. Through the four seasons, Jack is shown that he never walked alone, through even his most difficult times. Jesus was and is, always there next to him. A journey made as one. Awakened back to reality, and no longer frightened of his future, Jack embraces all that life has to offer. Will he be able to face life with this new passion? What is his final destination? And was Jesus real or just a dream..?

This is a book of guidance for life's journey rooted in the wisdom of ancient China. Best-selling author Deng Ming-Dao provides key poetic lines that distill the essence of Taoism, organizing them in the form of a journey. The material here is drawn from three sources: The Tao Te Ching, The Yijing, and 300 Tang Poems. Deng Ming-Dao writes: "We walk the Way each day. We don't know what's ahead and so it's helpful to have the wisdom of others to guide us. They have left us a message to encourage us. They have spoken of the joys, griefs, and purity that we should embrace. Like good pathfinders, they give us direction and prepare us for what we might encounter. They let us walk for ourselves. We have a wonderful companion for the journey." The following lines reflect the inspirational nature of this book: "A good traveler leaves no footprints." "Think three times, then move." "Words can be worth a thousand pieces of gold." "Ancestors plant trees. Descendants enjoy cool shade." "A journey of one thousand miles begins with a single step." This is a lovely package that will function as a gift for all occasions and as an object for those looking for daily sustenance on life's journey.

"Rooted in humorous stories distilled with bits of sagely honest advice, The Journey goes beyond the well-chronicled college admissions madness and cuts to the core of parental angst with concrete suggestions for preparing children for a competitive and rapidly changing world. Young people face an increasing medley of challenges as they pursue higher education. Amid skyrocketing tuition costs, 43 million U.S. adults hold a whopping $1.78 trillion in student loan debt. College admission is significantly more competitive than it was just a few years ago, and today's students compete with international talent for education and career opportunities. As a result, 40% of Gen Z adults live at home and have gained a "failure to launch" reputation. Many lack the skills and perspective they need to become fulfilled adults because their educational journey did not prepare them to be thoughtful, authentic, or strategic in developing and achieving their goals. Enter The Journey. Written for both parents and students, this guide is comprised of advice and personal anecdotes drawn from college admissions counselor Greg Kaplan's work. Kaplan offers sobering statistics about the lacking capabilities of the next generation and prescribes stories of parenting strategies that succeed in raising independent children to achieve their long-term goals. Emphasizing the foundational tenets of a successful adult life-grit, leadership, and passion-Kaplan approaches the college admissions process with the intent of instilling transferable skills that will carry students well into adulthood. He asks students: What do you want to get out of your college career and work career? How can you make the most of the college journey to jumpstart your journey into the real world? He asks parents: Are you preparing your children to attain a life of health, happiness, and financial independence? This book is designed to support today's youth in identifying their passions and developing the grit and leadership skills they will need to make the most of future opportunities. The Journey calls on parents to both act and refrain from acting to help their children develop into capable and independent adults and calls upon students to take control of their own futures through easy to implement steps"--
