My hope is that Noticing will spark readers’ imaginations to dream, believe, and wonder about all the extraordinary possibilities that are waiting to be discovered. To explore the world around them and the internal, emotional worlds within us all. The miraculous and inspiring are everywhere, but we need to pay attention and look with our minds and hearts wide open.
I believe the more we look for the good, the more we find it, and that approach can lead to a richer understanding of the world, ourselves, and each other. —KOBI YAMADA
