a guide to becoming real
toni raiten-d'antionio
even in a complex world,
simple truths can change everything.
once upon a time, a velveteen rabbit
learned that new isn't necessarily better...
that the quiet wisdom of an old toy horse
can change the world...
that honest friendships and understanding
can warm the heart...
that a good book can make the
world a better place...
and that love can make us real.
but where do we find honest, warmth and friendship?
what are real values, real goals, real love, a real life?
and most importantly, how can we rediscover our own
true selves?
the simple wisdom of a classic children's story
the velveteen rabbit can be the start of your return to real.
let this book show you the way.
