The Brushes of Life

The Brushes of Life by Donald E. Sheppard is an inspiring book which explores the idea that we all have a brush (or brushes) in life that carry our thoughts to an expression and enable us to exhibit what is within and that awareness of our brushes is powerful. Furthermore, identifying our brushes and their uses will render us more expressive, less anxious, and with a greater feeling of productivity.
