But less well-known is the journey that shaped his vision as a teacher\u003cbr\u003ethat began in 1987 when he was diagnosed with cancer. The revelations during that time would inform\u003cbr\u003eevery dimension of his work to follow.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith Inside the Miracle, Mark Nepo shares what he discovered along this challenging terrain, and the\u003cbr\u003einsights most essential to those of us who now find ourselves there. The lessons and stories here are for\u003cbr\u003eall of us, ill or not, when the inevitable question arises: How do we move through an overwhelming\u003cbr\u003ecrisis—whether from physical illness, grief, or a major life change—into the rest of our lives?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis offering presents in its entirety Nepo's 1994 literary gem Acre of Light, written shortly after his\u003cbr\u003erecovery.
