Miracles Are What You Make of Them is an oasis of hope in our chaotic world. An inspirational take on contemporary life intended for everyone, this 2023 book describes the “Will to Continue” and the “Will to Hope” as intertwined — along with the impetus to act on them — at any age.
In a time of increasing societal and political pressures, groundbreaking technological advances, heightened global tensions, and a looming climate crisis, what values sustain us? What gives our lives purpose? Who shares our memories? How can we create our future?
Written from the perspective of a vintage original (an elder, learned Jewish woman), Miracles Are What You Make of Them resonates with Biblical and Talmudic insights highlighted by real-life stories that reflect overcoming circumstances. The author’s deeply-felt words (and lyrical poems) become an ethical will for transformative living.
“…we are never too old to teach younger generations how to be hopeful too.”
