Reseña del libro "Verses of Pain, Passion and Pride (en Inglés)"
Driving through the fram roads of British Columbia, I asked Ranbir, my 11 yr old son, what picture comes to mind when he hears the words ""Pain, Passion, and Pride"". Ranbir's response made to the cover page of this book. A lioness, when pregnant, leaves everyone for the safety of her unborn children. Sacrifice and pain is what she experiences through her pregnancy and even after the newborns arrive in this world. Such is her passion that she nurtures them, keeps them safe and away from prey and other lions. Once they are big enough, the lioness and her cubs are reunited with their pride. Often in life, deeply surrounded by our troubles, we forget to step back and acknowledge the magnitude of pain in the world around us. Sometimes this mear acknowledgement gives us the strenght to fight our own fears and pain. This book is divided into three sections - pain, passion and pride. We all go through a journey where we experience pain, which always looks so big. We then learn to live through pain by following our passions- our passions give us the strenght to become a better human. The improved person that we become and are proud of contains qualities which may seem simple and small- but are the fuel which powers up our lives, and of those around us. This book brings to you poems of the pain this world is living through, visible through the poetess's lens. This book is a reminder to pursue your passion by practicing simple things we often take for granted. Most importantly, this book is a celebration of the pride that follows when you overcome the pain and accomplish your passion. Don't pray for difficulties to go away, pray for the strenght to tear through them and be born as a stronger version of yourself, a version you are very proud of!
