Overview

We've all experienced big moments in our life that are imprinted in our memory: awesome travel destinations, long-awaited reunions with loved ones, a newborn child or grandchild in our arms for the first time, graduations and weddings, the Northern Lights and lunar eclipses. Many of these are one of a kind, and require us to be in the right place at the right time. When added up, these big moments represent just a few days of our life. So, what about the rest of our days on earth? How can we infuse joy into every day? How can we, as children do, see the world as a playground and engage with it wholeheartedly? How can we, like them, be both curious and easily awed? We were all children once, but during the process of growing up we often lose our sense of wonder and awe. That is why as adults we easily overlook the unexpected rainbow, the little green shoots peeking out of the ground in spring or the roar of the creek after a rainfall. Yet, when noticed, these small wonders can bring joy to our day. In All This, Gisele shows the reader that we are all in the right place at the right time. She writes about the simple joys she discovered during a one-year exploration, which began with a happy and uplifting discovery while on a walk in the woods on an ordinary day. All This is an invitation to anyone who wishes to rekindle their sense of wonder and to sharpen their ability to spot joy every day.
