Some of these ideas found their way into my notes, and I would return to them whenever I had a quiet moment, often over a cup of coffee or after meditation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen COVID arrived, like so many others, I suddenly had the time and space to develop these reflections more fully. What began as one short film grew into a creative project that now spans five years, with seventeen completed \u003cem\u003eContemplations\u003c\/em\u003e and several others quietly waiting in the wings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe intent behind this work has always been to start a conversation, both with ourselves and with each other, about what we all share as human beings. I had grown weary of the polarization that seemed to define so much of our world, and I wanted to remind people that beneath our differences, we are far more alike than not. We all live, love, grieve, and die...and through it all, the common thread is love.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI hope these \u003cem\u003eContemplations\u003c\/em\u003e serve as a springboard for your own reflections and journaling, and that they inspire you to pause, look inward, and connect with the deeper rhythm that moves us all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rockliffe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1088104045\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781088104040\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Spiritual\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/30\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.64lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 8.50w x 0.31d","brand":"Rockliffe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48217911820543,"sku":"9781088104040","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_73f890e7-13cb-4171-8c66-7f0f96f745e8.jpg?v=1772000252","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/contemplations-rockliffe-9781088104040","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
