Meet J. Daniel Reed
Inspirations for the Book: The beauty of nature discovered during three wilderness canoe trips in Quetico Provincial Park in Canada as a teenager set my foundation as a nature lover. But it was when I was crossing the Rocky Mountains alone by car at 20 years old, I broke down in tears of joy when overwhelmed by the grandeur of nature and recognized God truly existed for only He could have created such beauty. This inspired in me great joy whenever we could escape to vacation or even just for walks in the woods. Messages from the Book: The natural world is unlimited in its beauty and inspiration. The ancient wisdom of the wolf pack can show us how to prosper in joyful harmony if only we are willing to examine and accept The Wolf Ways. Courage is essential for a truly fulfilling life but it can only be found by first embracing gratitude. Loyalty to something larger than ourselves allows for tolerance, self-control and pure humility. Ignorance and self-pity are a dangerous pair of shortcomings that keeps one from enjoying peace of spirit and the fruits of quality relationships.
