    <![CDATA[Founder and owner of the Word Garden, Mary Anne Radmacher   makes her art her life and her life an art. And in <em>Lean Forward into   Your Life </em>she invites us to do the same. Or as she says, <em>Lean   Forward into Your Life </em>is a commonplace book for leading an uncommon   life. An uncommon life need not include fame and fortune. An uncommon life   means living with intention, paying attention, celebrating, taking care of   yourself, risking love. To live an uncommon life is to live large from the   heart.   <p>Each section of <em>Lean Forward into Your Life </em>opens with a   hand-lettered aphorism in the author's signature collage style. The essays,   stories, and exercises that follow are designed to bring the reader into   her or his own uncommon life. In the tradition of The Invitation, by Oriah   Mountain Dreamer and I Will Not Die an Unlived Life by Dawna Markova, poems   that evolved into best-selling books, <em>Lean Forward into Your Life </em>is   an intimate book that leads readers into the center of their own ability to   change the world.     <p><p>* An invitation to the millions of people who want to make the most of   their lives and leave the world a slightly better place.</p></p></p>]]>
