The Prompt Write about a book that changed you. Read more about this here I chose the title, a question mark because I don't know the title of the book that had the biggest influence on my life. I don't know the name of the book but I think it was a French translation. There was a dog called "Socks", that, as far as I know, is not an English pet name.

Bitter Pill to Swallow
I'm an abalone kind of person. It's a family meme. My parents pulled me out of sixth grade for a half a year so we could tour the country. I like trying new foods, and we found a lovely little bistro in San Francisco that was selling abalone sandwiches. It. Was. AMAZING! Tasted like the best oysters EVER, melted in your mouth, not too much breading, just the best.

Siddhartha and My Leap of Faith
Writing when lonely is an escape. Escaping writing is loneliness itself. In the vast tapestry of human existence, there are moments when a single book can resonate so profoundly that it becomes a catalyst for personal transformation. For me, that transformative work was "Siddhartha" by Hermann Hesse. It was not merely a story but a mirror that reflected my own experiences and struggles in an uncanny way, ultimately leading me to make a life-altering decision.

In the realm of self-help and spiritualist literature, few books have left an indelible mark on readers as profoundly as Eckhart Tolle’s The Power of Now.

Tolle’s work has resonated with countless individuals seeking solace, meaning, and transformation in their lives. Among those individuals, I found myself drawn into Tolle's teachings, experiencing a profound shift in my approach to life. Following this book, I began to explore other teachers in manifestation, quantum physics, and spiritual enlightenment, including Neville Goddard. Through this essay, I will explore how The Power of Now has influenced my mindset and behavior, specifically focusing on how it has prompted me to adopt deliberate and mindful actions and has facilitated a deeper connection between my body and mind.
