On the LookOUT

Book excerpt: "On the LookOUT - for the better half" is an invitation for a mindful journey towards the authentic-self through the lenses of romantic relationships. Captivating, engaging and motivational - the book illustrates the turbulence of youth, while giving us an insight into the stability of adulthood by combining the romantic sarcasm of the poems with the pragmatic approach of today’s reflections. A book dedicated to those who seek and to those who discover: “I thought I was on the lookout for something or someone. However, it was there all along: ME.” – Diana Mereu "What would you teach your younger version about love if you could be able to travel back in time? On the lookout for the better half, Diana gets lost in the whirlwind of emotions only to later find her identity on the self-discovery path paved by her writing through the lenses of past relationships. Her introspections create a parallel between her present adult-self, grounded in awareness, and the past younger-self, looking for meaning in the reflection of others. This book illustrates the turbulence of youth, while giving us an insight into the stability of adulthood. As I found myself in these pages, I am convinced that so will others." – Dr. Laura S.
