"The Mastery of Love" is a book by Don Miguel Ruiz. It teaches us how to have good relationships with others and ourselves. The book says we should love and accept ourselves first, so we can love others better. It talks about how to stop feeling scared or jealous and how to love and be loved. It also tells us that people show and feel love in different ways. It helps us learn how to talk nicely and set good limits in relationships.

Some lessons from the book:

To have good relationships, you need to love and accept yourself.

You can learn to overcome fear and stop it from ruining your relationships.

Real love doesn't depend on conditions. It's not about what someone does for you.

Good communication is important. You should talk honestly and nicely to others.

Understand your feelings and thoughts so you can have better relationships.

Holding onto anger and resentment hurts you. Forgiving is good for your heart.

It's okay to say no and set limits. This helps you have balanced relationships.

Love is stronger than fear. Choose love in your actions and thoughts.

Focus on the moment. Don't worry too much about the past or future.

Loving is a skill you can practice and get better at over time.

The book has short chapters with things to do and think about. It helps us use these lessons in our own lives. Read this book if you want to learn how to make relationships better and feeling good about yourself.

JOMP Book Photo Challenge / November / 19 / book balancing

Over the past few years, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for balancing classic and contemporary literature. While I have a special place in my heart for Victorian novels or whodunnits from the golden age of crime fiction, I love to dive into contemporary works, no matter the genre, even though the rapid changes in the literary world sometimes feels a little overwhelming.

But I am a firm believer that the beauty of literature, and in this case "book balancing", is that we don’t have to pick one over the other. Classic literature offers a sense of continuity, connecting the past to the present, offering a space to simply linger, while contemporary works reflect the world as it is now. I believe that by balancing both, we honor timeless wisdom while embracing the fresh perspectives of today.

Hi Everyone!

First off, Happy New Year! My goal for this year is to write reviews and capture my thoughts on my reading journey this year. I hope you all, if you’re out there, join me in this and maybe find some new books or add your own thoughts to those you’ve read.

Let’s turn some pages!

Can you recommend me your favourite books? Angsty, emotionally draining, super detailed world building, long enough, that will host me along their pages for a few hours as I read? No specific trope, I just want to get lost in new stories
