Life offers so many interesting and exciting opportunities for us. The question is what is required to achieve these goals.
We must search all avenues for our interests, pair them with our talents and abilities, add in our determination and guidance in order to choose the best path to follow.
My desire through these poems is to highlight some Nuggets of ideas that will help you explore and Reflect in your own life as to how they may be useful in achieving your goal.
Identify – Nuggets of new ideas.
Reflect – On these, plus ideas previously tucked away.
Combine – For a positive outcome.
Add a laugh or two to sweeten the journey!
About the author
Naomi Bonner Leyva
“If I can do it, anyone can!” Have you heard that quote before?
Accept this challenge; only God knows what is possible.
Fifty years of my life have been dedicated to performing religious music. This significantly enhances your emotional and rhythmic cadence abilities, which become very useful.
This project began with a poem I wrote for my grandchildren one Christmas. They loved it and continued to ask for more. My friends loved them, too.
I asked Nikos, my publisher, to critique them, and after much discussion and consideration, the book was launched. But more poems were needed.
Once I started writing, I couldn’t stop. It was as though I was taking dictation.
Although ungroomed and untrained, with my past experiences, recounting powerful phrases from others, combined with my musical training, these poems emerged.
Added to these were faith-based notes of support, as well as humor, and this book was born.
Take the challenge. See what secrets you can unleash.
It’s very rewarding.
