Steven (56): The book that changed it all

When I see Steven standing by his car, he smiles kindly at me. I stop cycling. His eyes, his appearance, what a nice man, he probably wants to share a life lesson with me. And yes. After a physically and emotionally complicated period, Steven decided to develop things. Live differently, live more consciously, that's what he wanted, who doesn't recognize it. Steve was a businessman and was dealing with great grief. At that stage he was 'pointed out' to a book in two ways. And as we know: if the same thing comes your way from two different directions, a book, a film or a tip, then you have to do something with it. He immediately bought it: The White Book. When he finished it, he was 53 years old, a sentence from the book haunted him: Physical pain always sharpens the consciousness. And so it was clear as day. He couldn't do nothing with the haunting sentence and everything he had read and experienced. Things changed and the festival symbolized this shift for him. A new view on life, changing course, making plans. And then the courage to actually do this... all because of a beautiful book. I have also purchased it in the meantime. And his story? Definitely worth a necklace.
