The Golden Key to Happiness

I met the author of this inspirational book at a conference in Italy. She and her husband run the Goi Peace Foundation in Tokyo. The book is directly addressed to the reader and covers five main themes: that we can use our thought and energy to the fullest, that we can improve all our relationships, that we can overcome life's difficulties, that we can live our lives in love, happiness, forgiveness and harmony, and that we can uncover true self and accomplish our divine mission. The reflections are short and to the point, encouraging readers to maintain positive thoughts and an optimistic attitude and not to allow worry to penetrate the mind. We should take a constructive attitude towards all the people we meet, regardless of their attitude towards us. Our lives unfold according to our wishes and visions, and we are all capable of realising these. It is a wise message of freedom, encouragement and responsibility; and the author clearly implements her own advice.
