Customer Reviews

A spiritual book of comfort, insight and acceptance-gift book

I discovered this book in my therapist's office and was immediately drawn to it. I had not considered myself spiritual, and my therapist described it as Buddist-like. It opened a whole new world. The insightful phrases and dramatic pictures are all about accepting yourself and everything around you. I have a portion of one of the pages framed for my office "Wherever you are is exactly where you are supposed to be, no matter how things seem to appear." I have given this book and others of Rusty Berkus as a gift many times, and even now order used ones to give. I tried find more of the same type of book, and though not the same, if you like this you may like the Sanaya Roman books.Living with Joy: Keys to Personal Power and Spiritual Transformation

When you need it, it is the best book ever

This book may seem simple and even trite on a sunny day, but if you are ever down, this is the thing you need to read. it is timeless.

an inspirational mirror to the soul.

Rusty has a way of bringing you home to yourself. It's a wonderful book for teenagers and adults. The book concentrates on acceptance of you for the person you are. How it's possible to love, dislike, not believe and believe all at the same time and in the same moment.I have given this book on several occassions, to a teenager struggling with her identity, and an adult struggling to find hers.A book I gave to my therapist as a Christmas gift. It meant so much to me to share Rusty's words. I am sorry it's out of print, I have tried ordering,no luck. I almost gave my copy away!!

A simple, easy book for the Soul

Appearances is an extraordinary book in that it joins words and images in a simple yet powerful book. This book speaks to everyone, regardless of the point they are in their lives. As an example, the opening words are:, "Wherever you are at this moment is exactly where you are supposed to be, no matter how things may appear." and includes my favorite, among many favorites: "The dignity the world awards you is in exact proportion to the dignity you award yourself". Very wise and beautifully illustrated book. I wish I could order five more. Lucia Duncan
