Having spent a great deal of time in some of the larger cities in the country I've witnessed a trend, though not exclusive to the city. It is the propensity to move so fast from one moment to the next that we don't allow ourselves the opportunity to find the deeper meaning that lies underneath every moment. This short (easy to carry) but meaningful book is an opportunity to revisit some of those missed moments and reach the pearl. The lyrical tapestry of this book will make you angry, sad or laugh right out loud. Diving touches on subjects like surrender (Die Already), deep love (White Castle), nightmares (Fear), injustice (Medicine), death (Stanley), sex (She Liked Dick), and sensuality (I Love Rugs).
Diving works to support the part of every soul that desires to ask the questions that aren't easy to frame. To slow down and to hear an answer. Any answer. Because any answer will effect you. Which is what a centered mind seeks-- to be effected by and to affect their world for the highest good of all concerned. Every soul that desires to ask uncomfortable questions and receive unforgettable answers will enjoy Diving again & again.
