PURPLE CRAYONS The Art of Drawing a Life

This audiobook's heartfelt message draws on the 1955 children's book HAROLD AND THE PURPLE CRAYON to remind us that we can connect more fully with our "sacred originality" when we live our own lives rather than following the crowd. Narrator Kaleo Griffith's velvet tones and gentle phrasing create a soothing space in which to hear that we have inner resources that society's push for conformity has discouraged us from using. The author says that today's many distractions and narrowing views on what's normal make it hard to color outside the lines, hard to face a blank page and to draw from within. Though it's a road less traveled, the author's thoughtful writing and Kaleo Griffith's audible belief in this message will encourage many listeners to protect, nourish, and summon what is uniquely theirs.
