The Four Agreements
by Don Miquel Ruiz

A book that when understood gives clear direction for living a life of personal responsibility and loving relationships. This "way of living" is consistent with all religious traditions yet does not take a religious point of view. If we were all living these four agreements, we would have more loving relationships, especially with ourselves, a lot less drama, and a high level of awareness about what we are responsible for and what we are not. A life changing philosophy that has survived for hundreds of years and is still valid and powerful. A great gift for someone ready for a clearer and more responsible life.
