About the Book

Life is a journey; that goes without saying. But the nature or meaning of the journey is often elusive, so caught up we are in the details of living. Is life a journey where the landscape is ever-changing, or is it more like an archeological dig, where a single landscape is discovered over time to have diverse layers of meaning and being? Is each life an individual journey, or one universal journey, as seen through different eyes at different times and in different places? These questions and others are explored in this book, a poetic diary that records a portion of one life experience. These pages plot the map of a soul´s journey from one place to the apprehension of another, and onward to find the path to a new way of being.


About the Author

Elisabeth T. Eliassen has been a lifelong resident of the San Francisco Bay Area, where she and her husband are raising their girl/boy set of twins. She is a professional singer who regularly performs everything from liturgical chant to oratorio, opera and art songs. It was an intense love of literature that ultimately led to a life of song, as well as to intense personal studies of philosophy, religion, spirituality, psychology, history of ideas, linguistics, hermeneutics, metaphysics and, in recent years, holistic healing. Her poetry has evolved from a contemplation of words, their meaning, and how they both shape and reflect the arts of living and being. She is currently involved with a fledgling project of the United Nations Association of San Francisco called Artists for Global Peace. Ms. Eliassen is a certified Reiki Therapist.
