At a time when authentic words of wisdom are in short supply, there is one single clear, wise voice. It is the voice of our own heart.Light Up the World is a collection of poetry and prose to inspire new ways of being in ourselves and in the world. It is a timely contemplation that points to the truth of who we are and what that means for each of us and for humanity as a whole. It explores themes of love, silence, courage, nature, body, mind and spirit as well as soul and heart-based leadership.Both visionary and lucid, it is a reflection on a universal process of emergence and coming to understanding. It is a call to follow our hearts in order to build a kinder, more equitable and sustainable world for all.As with our own being, so too these words hold the seeds of potential of everything we need to realise the ever-present truth of who we are, and to support awakening for all. The fruits are greater presence, awareness, authenticity and compassion.Light Up the World encourages us all on the path of greater self-inquiry and action towards peace, compassion and loving service. Ultimately, it is a book about personal and collective truth, empowerment, wisdom, and waking up to our true nature.The journey starts within. Readers who like the work of Brené Brown, Eckhart Tolle, Elizabeth Gilbert, Deepak Chopra, Rupi Kaur, Gabor Mate, Russell Brand and other luminaries will enjoy the unique insight and inspiration of this journey of personal and collective transformation.
This book analyses the past and ongoing decline of Zimbabwe under the rule of ZANU-PF, with a primary focus on the period 1997 to the present. In contrast to much existing literature on post-independence Zimbabwe which has focused on the political dimensions of Zimbabwe's fragility, this research highlights the economic aspects of Zimbabwe's regression flowing from prolonged mismanagement of the economy which has served to consolidate the rule of the country's political and economic elite. The Zimbabwean experience offers unique insights into the economic mensions of regime preservation. This book situates the Zimbabwe experience within the context of wider debates within the field of development studies, and the international community's response to such situations.
