For generations, they have lived in the quiet shadows of the mountain, hiding from a creeping silence that swallows the light. Young Elian was never meant to be a hero; he was meant to be a gardener.

How certain people always have support when they need it, while others find themselves alone when life gets hard? We call it luck, blessings, or karma—but what if it's something simpler and more powerful than that? WAKING UP: A Guide to Spirituality without Religion strips away the mysticism and shows you the observable truth: the energy you put into the world comes back to you.
