Finding the wind / Janet J. Mills

“This is a novel for young people of any age who believe that thinking matters, quite literally, and that it can make an exciting difference everyday lives. Thandi has lost both her parents and her focus in life. Through a quest of self-discovery she learns to be compassionate towards herself and others. Her journey spans learning rom brick and mortar schools, an indigenous leader, the bush, the ocean, the mountain, and the great saints of both past and present. The story addresses the question: How should we live our lives? It explores how we can make our world better or worse by being kind or unkind to ourselves, others and our environment. Our choices matter quite literally as they shape our world. This is the magic of quantum theory – our thoughts write the landscape of our lives. We are participants in the universe, not passive observers.”--Back cover.
