Summary:
"At once a moving meditation and an empowering guide,
More
Together
Than
Alone
is an compelling testament to the power of community and why it{u2019}s so essential in our lives, now
more
than
ever. Mark Nepo draws from historical events, spiritual thought leaders, and the natural world to show how, in every generation, our tendency is to join
together
to accomplish our greatest achievements, from creating education to providing clean drinking water, and preserving the arts. Nepo{u2019}s historical snapshots, from ancient times to contemporary examples, show how community creates a light in the darkest of times, and gets to the heart of how we come
together
in varied and beautiful ways, whether forming resistance groups during the Holocaust or rebuilding after the nuclear devastation in Nagasaki. These inspiring stories teach us that even in the bleakest days, we have the power to create connections and draw strength from one another."--Amazon.com.
