One night, after an evening spent at an unsatisfying social gathering, Oriah Mountain Dreamer sat down and wrote her heartfelt poem. The Invitation, it begins: It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living, I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. Profound and passionate, the poems travelled by word of mouth and the internet across the globe to be read at weddings, funerals and spiritual gatherings. Now in this practical and inspiring book, the author expands on the ideas behind the poems to create a guidebook for living a life full of integrity, commitment and passion.
