"My grandparents taught me an old French-Canadian proverb: Anyone who doesn't express their gratitude for all their gifts on a daily basis is a thief. Becca Anderson's new collection reinforces these notions of gratitude, gifts, and daily practice. Keep it on the table of your choice and refer to it whenever you are tempted to think you've accomplished everything on your own."
Phil Cousineau, author of Burning the Midnight Oil, The Painted Word, and The Art of Pilgrimage
