We all want to be happy and lead a fulfilling life. I wrote this book because I believe self-awareness is essential to accomplish all we hope for in our lifetime. You can cultivate it when you realize its power. We all have it, One of the biggest challenges I faced since the day I was born is what does it mean to be an Asian American living in America, especially at a time when there were so few. My race forced me be to become more self-aware of who I am, and, in this journey, I became more rooted in my humanity and developed my spiritual dimension that we all have. My book opens up with this poem and quote.
