TitleLeadingThe
SynopsisThe Well of Being , from Jean-Pierre Weill, is an illustrated inquiry into the art of happiness and what it means to be radically alive in our daily moments. Images and a graceful philosophic text invite us to awaken from our constructed stories that we may return to this world and live in the present. The book opens with a perennial account of life's ultimate purpose and concludes with a unique retelling of the puzzle we call growing up. Through art, philosophy, and poetry we are offered a refreshing and empowering way to rethink ourselves. The book is an experience to be felt., An enchanting, visually arresting, "extraordinary children's book for adults...that peers into the depths of the human experience and the meaning of our existence." (Brainpickings.org).
