Like Streams to the Ocean

Thank you Convergent Books for this gifted copy.

I’m so very excited to read this book! It’s no secret that I’m a huge fan of learning about what makes our subconscious and consciousness tick. To do that we have to learn what shapes who we are and Jedidiah Jenkins dives in and poses those questions and asks you to begin to look deeper into the Self in his new book Like Streams to the Ocean.

You can travel the world looking for yourself, but if you don’t know what you're looking for, how can you find it? Like Streams To The Ocean is about examining the things that make us who we are and getting to know ourselves, our stories, and the decisions that shape our one and only life.

Writing with the passion and clarity that made his debut, To Shake the Sleeping Self, a national bestseller, Jedidiah Jenkins brings together new and old writings to explore the eight subjects that give life meaning: ego, family, home, friendship, love, work, death, the soul.

Who am I? What am I made of? How much of how I act boils down to avoiding the things that make me feel small? As he examines the experiences that shape our conscious and subconscious answers to these questions, Jenkins leads readers in a wide-ranging conversation about finding fulfillment in the people and places around us and discovering the courage to show our deepest selves to the world.

“Jedidiah Jenkins is a beautiful, attentively humane writer whose vivid prose comes suffused with the noble belief that words really do matter, and that through them we can know and be known. There is wisdom in this book, as well as something rarer still: the genuine and infectious faith that the good life—what the philosophers call flourishing—is attainable, and that one really can improve. I couldn’t put these essays down.” —Thomas Chatterton Williams
