"Lisa Shatzky ponders whether "maybe most things exist outside of words" however, through her words she takes her audience on a journey of self—reflection, inviting us to embrace the mysteries, to live the questions, showing us that vulnerability is the key to connection in this world we live in. She also invites us to find the music in the silence, to keep on loving and that there is A Thousand Ways to Kiss the Earth. Once again, get ready to have your heart swept open by another collection of unforgettable poems." —Ruta Yawney, MA, RCC, FAMI Registered Clinical Counsellor
