Visions For Becoming

"A Vision for Becoming," by Meg Pier, is a 83-page book featuring her photographs from locales around the globe, captioned by motivational and thought-provoking quotes from sages of the ages, ranging from Ovid to Oprah. The book focuses on what it means to feel part of something bigger than oneself, be it through friendship or love relationships, community, the tapestry of life, or eternity of the soul. The photographs featured in the book span every ecosystem: tropical islands, deserts, jungles, fjords, plains, glaciers, volcanic mountains and coastlines. The pictures depict settings that convey the beauty of the world we live in, and universal aspects of the human condition. Those quoted represent a breadth of cultures and spiritual movements, and include insights from philosophers, political leaders, writers, comedians, musicians, poets, artists, and others, from the B.C. era to today.
