"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step."—Lao Tzu In this gorgeously illustrated book, artist Iulia Bochis pairs timeless wisdom with visual storytelling to weave a tale of self-love and personal growth. Following a traveler through the changes of fall, the loneliness of winter, the hopeful promise of spring, and the brightness of summer, she explores loss, transformation, and self-discovery through the seasons of life. Bochis combines her original affirmations with Zen proverbs and quotes from visionaries like Lao Tzu, Rumi, Hafiz, and more to guide readers through their own journeys, inspiring them to trust the process, find comfort in new beginnings, and reflect on the beauty of the world around them.
