Returning / العودة

by Mais Amad

Book Image Not Available Book Image Not Available
Overview
The journey of a woman who was raised and developed between West & East. Through reality's pitfalls and joyful bursts, she begins a path to experience the Divine within, or so she thinks until the years and experiences around her have shown her that she, along with many others, are in fact returning to their spiritual essence. Returning is subtle, it looks like sleeping habits, physical activity, eating well, embracing community, and enriching the mind & soul. The dramatic outcome, yet also subtle, is ego shifting, pride lifting, inward sincerity deepening, and the limitless and weightless way of living.
