      Praise for and: A love story within

      Michelle Kaplan’s keen awareness of the truth of our human experience and her transparent vulnerability combined with her personal quest for freedom and self-expression make reading her poetry a deep and meaningful experience.

      Jack Canfield, Coauthor of the Chicken Soup for the Soul® series and The Success Principles™: How to Get from Where You Are to Where You Want to Be

      Michelle Kaplan set out on a journey to find herself amid all the inner and outer confusions and complexities of life. Many readers will find their own story in hers, and will find her poetry inspiring and empowering as they set out to do what she did: reconnect with themselves, and live out the love affair between ‘soul and ego, heart and mind, love and fear, heaven and earth.’ There’s a love story within all of us waiting to be written and rewritten, the kind of self-love without which all other love fails. May this book help you find, write, and live your inner love story.

      Parker J. Palmer, Author of Let Your Life Speak, A Hidden Wholeness, and On the Brink of Everything

      Michelle Kaplan’s poems have a way of latching onto ones’ soul and provides a sense of inner peace and freedom.

      Jean Marie Rosone, LCSW, Coordinator of Integrative Oncology, Carol G. Simon Cancer Center, Morristown Medical Center

      It took reading and: a love story within for me to realize that my conscious mind assumed and was a decision to be made, a conscious choice about how to live. No. It’s present in everyday living, striving and inclusive, a gift that is given, if only we can see. This book puts words to the inner knowings we all have, yet so easily dismiss. And gives permission to listen to the clear, steady, and persistent inner voice and in doing so fully become ourselves.

      Michelle Arpin Begina, Senior Partner/Managing Director

      Wealth Advisory Firm

      and: a love story within is a mirror of your most inner thoughts and struggles. Self-reflections are brought to the surface that have been buried over time. It tugs at your soul and reminds you of who you once were and who you can rediscover.

      Rosemarie M.

      This book will touch your heart! As you read it, over and over again, you will be inspired and you will belly laugh! Like a dear friend you really trust, it will speak to you in the challenging moments of life. And—it will support you on your journey of True Self discovery and transformation!

      Mitch Rosacker, Self Discovery Studio

      "Though a personal journey of her own awareness, Michelle Kaplan’s poems enabled me to place myself in the story as if
