Sparkling Gems

Here are (what I consider) 13 Literary Gems.  The number 13 is associated with the Divine, and is said to bring good luck and prosperity to those who embrace it.

 

I have a very long list of resources I have encountered in the past 10 years.  These 13 rise above the rest.  I have recommended these, used them in Theme Groups and shared with many along the way.  I consider them my personal crown jewels in learning about life, discovering myself and going within.

 

It has been said,  “the only way out is in” - perhaps there is something on this list that will guide you deeper within.
