My Life So Far - Sally L Fulton - Bog

Sally L. Fulton's book of poetry and Paintings was awarded first place in the 2018 EVVY Awards by Colorado Independent Publishers Association. This first book of published poetry, My Life So Far: Breathing Lessons, by Sally L. Fulton invites you to enter intimately into her life and shows the reader, with clear and lyrical imagery, how she finds meaning in each moment. Her life is a microcosm of the suffering and transformation that everyone faces. That transformation, for this writer, is found in nature, and in the Buddhist principal which Thich Nhat Hanh calls "interbeing", the knowledge based on both spiritual and physical understanding that we are all a part of something greater that unifies us. Included in this artistic volume are several images of her paintings, each as rich and diverse as her poems. These paintings reflect the beauty of what the painter sees with her eyes as well as what she encounters in the unexpected nature of the spontaneous. It is through both language as well as through painting that she has come to find potent avenues toward an expression of her own truth.
