Beachcombing at Miramar: The Quest for an Authentic Life Hardcover - 1996
by Richard Bode
A man moves into a cottage on the West Coast shore. As he explores his surroundings, he begins to penetrate many of the deep mysteries of life. Through the ebb and flow of the tides, he discovers unselfish love and explores man's undeniable connection with nature. With all the lyrical wisdom and heartfelt passion that moved readers of First You Have to Row a Little Boat, this insightful little volume reveals the secrets of a well-lived life and shows us all how to come to terms with who we really are.
From the rear cover
Richard Bode left an unfulfilling career and an unhappy marriage to seek the truth about his life. On a California beach he contemplated the sea and shore, and tuned himself to the rhythm of the tides. His authentic self emerged. And in this remarkable and beautiful book, he shares the lessons he learned about the art of living. What does it mean to be a husband and a father? What does it mean to be a success, to be someone's lover, someone's son? Bode finds surprising answers in surprising places: in a sunset, in a piece of beach glass, in conversations shared and conversations overheard, in memories of his father. Beachcombing At Miramar is filled with unforgettable moments: a funeral for drowned fishermen, birds at dusk, and constellations in the night. And with each word picture, painted with the passion and clarity that Gauguin sought in Tahiti, Bode shows us how to see with new eyes the choices we make - from relationships we choose to relationships we flee, from careers we pursue to the ones that consume us.
