{"product_id":"9781504368292","title":"Poetic Ponderings: Extracting the Nutrients from Life'S Lessons","description":"The poems in this “journal” are intended to act as catalysts for readers who wish to reflect on their life journeys, and perhaps, broaden their perspectives. The author takes the reader for a ride along one avenue of her spiritual path, as she shares the awakening of her contemplative awareness.  After becoming a widow, she was in the process of preparing for another fulfilling stage of her life, when a rivetingly revealing period ensued.  As if in a trance, verses started flowing like an unobstructed river. Transcribing the experiences onto paper was intensely meaningful because she recognized that a distinct emotional healing had taken place.  The poems are divided into two sections:  Ponderings about life, and Ponderings about romantic love.    The author hopes that the reader will observe some parallels and draw upon the innate strength and wisdom that we all possess.","brand":"Balboa Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47143371931888,"sku":"9781504368292","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781504368292_p0.jpg?v=1763711551","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781504368292","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
