"Such a strand of priceless pearls for the heart and spirit! Gathered from poets and philosophers across continents, centuries, and cultures, the words here both anchor us in wisdom and give us wings to explore beyond the boundaries of what we think we know. --Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer, author of All the Honey and host of The Poetic Path How often do we truly stop and think? Osha Reader's Inspirations, Vol. II, reminds us that we don't do it often enough. Herein is wisdom and, as the title implies, inspiration. Every quote, every poem, every thought is as uplifting as this little gem from A. A. Milne, ""Weeds are flowers too, once you get to know them."" -- John May, author of Poe & Fanny and English America: An Introduction to The Lost Colony & Jamestown Inspirations, Volume II is another treasure trove of inspiration, carefully curated from centuries of great teachings from many different cultures. I am especially pleased to see quotes and poems from lesser-known teachers and from ""ordinary"" folks. This shows us that wisdom can come to us from almost anywhere, once we are open enough to recognize it. -- Forest Dalton, meditation retreat leader and author of Connecting with Eternity"
