In this collection of his essays and writings, James Emerson Hough reflects on the serenity of retirement living in the middle of his own private Certified Forest Preserve and Wildlife Habitat in Southeast Indiana, the inspiration it engenders to be creative, and the ability to focus his thinking. He finds it rewarding to share his perspective, but the selfish reason he writes is that it makes him a better person. When asked why he writes, Mr. Hough admits that writing helps keep his mind alert and head on straight. He’s inspired to read and unlock novel ideas in his mind, research them, and develop compelling techniques to put them together in writing. Writing is his habit. He knows that no one can write anything who does not think that what they write is for the time history, or do anything well who does not esteem their work to be of importance. Old age has yet to creep on the author’s mind, and wisdom will never let him stand with another on unfriendly footing. For him to write what will not become obsolete is to write sincerely to himself while attempting to satisfy his own curiosity. Where Mr. Hough found peace of mind, peace of mind was waiting there.

Books are the quietest and most constant of friends, the most patient of teachers, and the most accessible and wisest if counselors. Worthwhile books that get into the world are written by successful people who utter what tens of millions feel though they cannot say. Certain books are vital, not leaving readers what they were; they shut the book a richer person. Finding Peace of Mind and Keeping It is full of energy.

Genuinely One of My Favorites Sunscreens in Existence
I use stick sunscreen around my eyes on a daily basis. It's less likely to run into my eyes and sting than regular sunscreen. However there can still be issues. Sometimes it still irritates my eye area, looks weird under makeup, pills, or (as with most mineral sunscreens) leaves a weird cast around my eye area. I was very pleasantly surprised by this sunscreen. It feels like very light weight balm that feels heavenly on the skin. It isn't sticky, greasy, and doesn't have a weird sunscreen smell. It's moisturizing without being too moisturizing, if that makes sense. Given the price point I am absolutely amazed at the quality. If you repackaged this sunscreen and sold it as a luxury product I would be none the wiser. This will be a new staple in my daily routine.

Good for on-the-go sun protection
This is a solid purchase because the compact size makes it easy to carry around. The velvety finish feels nice on the skin and blends in clear, which is great for all skin tones. It’s also quick and easy to apply.

I recommend this product for daily use
I recommend this product because it's gentle on my skin and works well for daily use. The compact size makes it easy to carry around, and it provides good UV protection with a velvety finish. Plus, it layers under makeup nicely and adds a subtle glow. The moisturizing formula keeps my skin hydrated. Overall, a great travel-friendly sunscreen that's non-comedogenic and suits all skin tones.

Great appearance but fumes burn eyes
I like the easy application and shear appearance. Slightly dewy look. I have been using for over a year but had to stop. Each time my eyes would become more sensitive to the “fumes” wafting off my cheek bones. Unfortunately I bought three sticks because I liked it so much, but now I just apply it to my legs.

Great Sunscreen for Daily Use and Travel
This is a really great purchase because I love how compact and travel friendly it is. The UV protection is effective, and it blends in clear so no white cast. The moisturizing and velvety finish makes my skin feel soft and radiant. Perfect for daily use, and I feel confident wearing it every day.
