"""A beautifully insightful journey! We could all use a lesson or two in using more of our hearts to see beyond our vision."" Christina Aguilera, singer-songwriter ""We live in a world that's a technological wonder and an emotional wasteland. As a parent I've thought often about how I can raise my kids to be better than what we see in social media feeds and in the news. This book has helped me take the chaos of life-the often unreliable emotional responses to outside influences-and simplify it all in a way my three kids can understand and put into use in their own lives. It is a fun and engaging read and, without a doubt a book I plan to reread whenever I find myself feeling like the world is running out of good people because the ideas are simple and profound. It has helped me become the sort of change I want to see in the world around me. I'm confident that making choices while keeping the lessons of this book in my mind will enhance my own life."" SSgt. Michael Malarsie, USAF Retired, motivational speaker and cofounder of The Malarsie Project ""The Two Paths offers a relatable journey that also provides insight about one man and the human condition. It's at once memorable and funny, thought-provoking, and encouraging."" Bahzad Ballout, assistive technology trainer ""The power held within these pages beckons to the human experience we all know deeply-it lends resource and perspective, shining light in the murky places that elude us from Seeing, and reminds us our humanity is the grand gift bestowed upon us in this journey."" Rachel Lorraine, artist"

Author Information

Steven Fidler was born and raised in southwestern Pennsylvania. He was part of a small family dynamic with one brother, a mom and dad, and a family dog. He expected to carve out a similar life to his father...to make a decent living, get a house, and make a small family of his own. Life had other plans, however. Steve ended up unexpectedly going blind, struggling with anxiety and depression, and ultimately finding that all of life is a gift through a journey that he could never have imagined.He now lives in Vermont along with his favorite person and explores the strange and amazing things that life has to offer. Things like reiki, martial arts, and a host of esoteric practices seeking a deeper understanding of a world that is hiding in plain sight. You can find him at the local tea house, or at the Indian and Thai restaurants, enjoying good food and conversation with close friends and family. : Rachel Lorraine is a visual artist based in Los Angeles, California. A life-long creative, never without a pencil in hand, Rachel was self-taught-primarily exploring her preferred mediums of oil painting, digital art, and photography. Honing her craft in the LA art scene, she refined her own definitive style of portrait surrealism combined with abstract symbolism she is known for today. Andrea Leigh Ptak's philosophy: The words-the message-matter. The visuals-the typography, layout, images, and colors-all work together to enhance the message. From 1974-81 she worked for a variety of firms in the communications industry, including a local newspaper, three advertising agencies, a corporate in-house agency, and a large commercial printing company. This experience gave her the skills to strike out on her own in 1981, when she opened a six-person, full-service design and photography studio in San Antonio, Texas. In 1993, with her industry fully revolutionized by the computer, she moved to Seattle and downsized to a home office. This technical background and 40+ years of experience give her the perfect blend of old-school knowledge and digital technology to ensure that her work meets a high level of quality. As a designer, Ptak excels at text-intensive projects like books. Her typography is top-notch, as she pays a great deal of attention to details like kerning and text flow. You'll find no widows, orphans, rivers, or strings of multiple hyphens in her work. As a project manager, she can access both her right and left brain equally to assist her self-publishing clients through the process from text to published work and promotion as much or as little as they need.
