I Bow to Everything

By Marcia Buch

I Bow To Everything is an unfolding account of deep, rich lessons of the soul. Through receiving news that turned her comfortable world upside down, Marcia Buch, teacher and artist, shares her inspirational story of coping, with the potential to uplift all of us in our daily journey.

She writes, "When I can turn lessons inward, and see that I can repair sadness within myself, this then ripples out to others. The world becomes better because I have taken the time to look inward, take action, and live with the intention to be truthful in my life even in those places of sadness and doubt. Living and loving strong are beautiful ways to surf the crest of the waves of life."

I Bow To Everything chronicles a personal journey of acknowledging grief, embracing joy and improving quality of life.

"If God said,
Rumi, pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,

there would not be one experience of my life,
not one thought,
there would not be one experience of my life,
not one thought,"
not any act,
I would not bow to."
