What Matters: Reflections on Important Things in Life

What Matters: Reflections on Important Things in Life

by Mary Kennedy (Author)

Synopsis

In this book of consideration and appreciation, best-selling author and broadcaster Mary Kennedy takes stock of her life and those things most important in it. She considers what makes us strong, and how we can develop resilience in the world through knowing ourselves from within, and knowing our roots. She considers the nature of family and friendship too, and how a mother's role changes over time.
Food, fashion, beauty - 'the eyes of the heart' - and the creative arts are all explored, along with honest reflections on the challenges and uncertainties of life, and how we maintain hope and faith in the face of loss. Ultimately, she asks how, as we get older, we can change our world for the better, for those who follow in our footsteps.
What Matters is the perfect bedside book to read for solace and inspiration - and the ideal gift for someone important in your life.
