I am the earth, people are the trees.

Life is strange: joy keeps us childlike, but it is sadness and adversity that help us grow, mature, and appreciate everything.

The book "Flower Heart Blooms" - by young author Nhat Diem

With the book "The Heart Blooms" (published by The World Publishing House in 2024), author Nhat Diem has lit a candle. It is a gentle and warm light that can ignite a spark of hope for those still immersed in the darkness of their lives.

Before encountering Nhat Diem's ​​"The Blooming Heart," I had read many psychology books and understood that when faced with problems, one cannot forge a path for oneself if one's feet remain rooted to the spot.

But my legs aren't to blame; all the stagnation is due to my mind. When the mind is constrained, my perspective on everything, every event in life, becomes negative and ugly. Outdated, outdated thinking hinders change. And then, good things never have a chance to appear.

Nhat Diem is a consultant specializing in love, marriage, and family. The more experiences she has, the deeper her understanding becomes. Nhat Diem has accumulated a wealth of valuable lessons that help her see through the essence of many issues in life.

She pointed out that failure is not something to be feared, but rather an opportunity to correct mistakes: "There is no such thing as failure, it's all just feedback from the universe." Suffering is also not caused by others, but rather by our lack of self-love.

When our hearts are narrow, the love we express is limited, and what we receive in return is insignificant. Life only truly becomes meaningful and happy when we give: love, tolerance, understanding, sharing… without demanding anything in return.

My favorite quote from the book is: "We are the earth, people are the trees. Don't expect the leaves to be green when the soil is barren." If we don't choose to be gentle with others and with life, how can we expect life to be gentle with us? The world around you is a reflection of the energy you radiate.

We are only truly happy when our minds are nourished by positive things. And happiness is contagious. If you notice children radiant with happy smiles on their faces, I assure you that their parents are happy people. Because in this world, no child can be happy when their parents are constantly struggling with worries and sadness. No child can smile if their parents are constantly immersed in arguments, competition, and tears.

With her gentle writing style, Nhat Diem brings a sense of peace and comfort. The encouraging whispers throughout the 20 chapters will serve as a foundation to motivate you to change your mindset in a positive direction, to see things more deeply, but also to calmly accept and gently resolve issues with the love in your heart. The flower of your soul will bloom when you open your heart to everything with a serene and worry-free attitude.
