An ABC book intended to inspire confidence and self-esteem in a colorful, fun, and playful way.

Andrea "Anya" Robinson has finally surrendered to the demands of her family, friends, and fellow authors to publish her first book From My Heart to Yours. Anya is a prolific writer and motivational speaker whose words capture the heart and listening ears of her audiences as she takes us on her road so traveled in her quest to find "self ." Now she is taking it a step further by empowering others with not only the spoken word but the written word in a clear and more visible way. Her words will energize the energy-deficient, motivate the unmotivated, and ignite those whose flames were extinguished from adversities and temporary setbacks in their lives. Anya's writings will restore faith, hope, and dreams as you turn the pages of From My Heart to Yours. Anya's life experiences formed the foundation for the vision of a motivational message that was buried deep within her which became a book. When her vision became clear, the concept for her book From My Heart to Yours was conceived, and during the formulating and growing process, it became a healing session for her. As you read each message, you will feel a sense of newness, peeling away layers as you become renewed. You may even discover that you have experienced the same feelings in your life, but there were no words to describe it. This book speaks to people whose life has been turned upside down or at a place you never thought you would be, the "crossroad of life" waiting for the signal to move on. Each of the writings have been residing deep within her Spirit as she shares them with us, she emerges as a light in dark places. Her book is an expression of a woman who has waited a lifetime to unveil the gifts that God has so graciously deposited in her. Congratulations and thanks for sharing! Pastor MacArthur O.

Gibran Kahlil Gibran (January 6, 1883-April 10, 1931) usually referred to in English as Kahlil Gibran. He was a Lebanese-American wirter, poet and visual artist. He was also considered as a philosopher. His best book is 'The Prophet'. It was one of the best-selling books of all time. The achievement is that the book has been translated into more than 100-language. The present book 'A Tear and a Smile' is a wonderful bunch of poetry. And a beautiful anthology. Poetry: "I would not exchange the sorrows of my heart. For the joys of the multitude. And I would not have the tears that sadness makes. To flow from my every part turn into laughter. I would that my life remain a tear and a smile." Poetry are filled with great thoughts and also in-depth feelings. Poetry are related to life. So one has to focus on the understanding and in depth message in each poetry. The author has nicely related the value of Tear and Smile in to his poetry. Every poem is admirable. "The cry of your spirit and I am come to comfort it. Open your heart to me and I shall fill it with light." Author has focussed on feelings. Spiritual feelings the author narrates the pain & sorrows in this world. Tears flush out sorrows and grief. Smile always gives confidence and how to face all the situations. When heart is filled with emotions and by the hurt feelings, then tears are there to help you out. Gibran thus narrates how sorrow of the heart & tears of sadness makes like how into joy. So a tear can lead to a smile because happiness and sorrow come hand in hand. Our sorrows purify us and makes us understand the world.

Smile aims is to promote health and ease sufferings and offers sensible solutions for life’s problems! If understood with an open mind, may upgrade one to any level. The mind takes initiative in all activities and the body follows that! Emotions are stronger than physical matter. Corrections of emotional misbalance lead to harmony on the physical level. Smile is the strength that stays in the very moment like the verses of imagination whenever one perceives in the interaction with another and the joy becomes an infinite spirit of living. In religion, one remains as a Hindu, Mohammedan or Christian and so on, as we are afraid because our religion is based on beliefs. So, everybody is trying to protect their flock by encountering others. When anyone feels, there is religious fragrance but no religion as such; that is total freedom. Liberation is practically possible in the ‘smile’ state, beyond any belief.
