The exceptional debut collection of poems and meditations from songwriter and artist Ford Turrell.
Will We Still Be Here Tomorrow?! This is an essential question for discovering how to live our lives in the here and now, and not be so attached to our reflections on the past or our desires for the future. This collection of poems and meditations arise from Ford's own struggles and experiences with love, loss, faith, fear, parenthood, anxiety, and personal transformation. Ford's writing unfolds the intricate layers of these experiences with powerful simplicity and clarity.
This collection seamlessly weaves between the most intimate, and sometimes difficult, life moments and the clarity, freedom, and peace that can arise when we see those moments for what they truly are. The interwoven nature of the themes in this work reflects how our lives actually manifest-slipping between anxiety and fear in one moment, and brief flashes of clarity, peace, and understanding in the next. Many of these writings emerged from Ford's long-time meditation practice, and are simply offered here as an invitation: into the wisdom and peace present in each and every person, in each and every moment. A truly intimate, emotional, and reflective work.
