Sei glücklich ¿ nicht perfekt!Immer wieder verstellt unsere Suche nach Perfektion unseren Blick auf die Schönheit des Jetzt. Es sind gerade die kleinen, unperfekten Momente, die unser Leben zu etwas Besonderem machen. Nicht die Suche nach Perfektion, sondern die Suche nach den stillen, glücklichen Augenblicken sollte uns antreiben. Wenn es uns gelingt, den gegenwärtigen Moment mit Nachsicht und Liebe zu betrachten, können wir die Fülle und den Reichtum unseres Lebens wirklich spüren. Sei es die Erinnerung an die Liebe unserer Mutter, das Glück, unsere Kinder aufwachsen zu sehen ¿ unsere Leben sind voller Quellen der Wärme und Freude. Nichts muss perfekt sein. Es muss echt sein.Sprachen: Deutsch, Deutsch

'Einfühlsam zeigt uns der Zen-Mönch, wie ein erfüllendes Leben gelingt.' HappinezNur allzu oft bleibt im hektischen Alltag keine Zeit für die kleinen Momente, die uns Freude schenken. Viel zu selten besinnen wir uns auf die einfachen Dinge, die uns ein Lächeln ins Gesicht zaubern. In seinem neuen Buch zeigt uns der Mönch und Bestsellerautor Haemin Sunim, wie wir uns von der Perfektion verabschieden und die Kostbarkeit des Augenblicks wieder wertschätzen. Denn es sind gerade die kleinen, scheinbar nicht perfekten Dinge, die das Leben so wertvoll machen - ein Waldspaziergang, Begegnungen mit Freunden oder das Glück, unsere Kinder aufwachsen zu sehen. Nichts muss perfekt sein. Es muss echt sein.Ausstattung: vierfarbig
