You don’t need more words, you need more Truth.

Truth in a falsified, burdened world. Truth that earnestly looks back at you in the mirror, ever present, ever strong.

When you burn your life down, you have no one to face but yourself.

By approaching each new day with vigor, determination and persistence, look at the world with not only your eyes, but with your entire being.

Live with intention. Die with no regrets.

About the Author

Born August 12, 1984, Nina Yau has been writing since the age of five. With a penchant for adventure, she completed her first international solo flight at the age of six to Taiwan (Republic of China) with nothing more than a small duffel bag and a stuffed kitten in tow. After completing business school in her hometown of Chicago and well on her way to a standard corporate life, Nina abandoned it all behind at age twenty-six in order to pursue a life worth living for. She’s been walking the path of Truth ever since.

Nina helps others discover the Truth within all of us through teaching Yoga and with her introspective writings at her blog Castles in the Air. She currently is living and traveling all throughout India, and has been since 2011.
