When we make mistakes in life we must find the courage and stamina to proceed and move positively with our life. Dr. Anthony Manna, award-winning children's author and author of Loukas and The Game of Chance joins Ashley on Live Your True Life Perspectives. Dr. Manna explains his reasoning for creating such a thoughtful and meaningful story. The story will inspire all to be kind, to see the value of every living animal and human being on the planet, and to expose the way we deal with setbacks especially setbacks that we ourselves have created. In the story, Loukas makes a meaningful friendship with an unlikely type. In the process, Loukas is rewarded for his care and he creates a special bond. Later on in the story, because of anger and trying to prove someone wrong about him and his family he loses everything and has to go on a self-understanding quest to get his life back and make the wrongs right. In the process, he learns much about himself and much about the world we live in. The story is meaningful no matter what your age because we've all made a decision that hurt us, however, it wasn't the mistake but it is the resolution and action that we take to resolve the situation that calls on our depth and followthrough where we find our purpose, personal power, and fortitude. Followthrough and life engagement is key to a mindful and thoughtful life. Dan Nelson joins us to discuss helping Jeff to find his birth father and how it all came together to reveal the information Jeff had been wanting. If Dan had not followed through and others hadn't reached out to Dan, Jeff wouldn't have received this information that is changing his life forever.
