Trina paulus biography

When I was a young kid, I happened upon a book that changed my life: Hope for the Flowers.

At a time in my life when I felt little hope for the future, this book made me realize that it's OK to go your own path. Like a caterpillar, it's fine to go through many years in a cocoon while everyone else is climbing and clawing their way to the top of the same path—even though no one really knows where that path leads. And for those brave folks who are willing to enter the cocoon, and contemplate their own path, they can turn into a beautiful butterfly, and fly to the top of their own path, bypassing all the competitive climbers.

This book had such a profound influence on me, I contacted the author Trina Paulus a few years ago to give her my gratitude. To my delight, she responded almost immediately! Ever since, we have formed a long-lasting and meaningful friendship.
