In the role of a troubadour with a philosopher's heart, he shares how; infusing the activities of life with reverence, compassion and trust makes them come alive with meaning and purpose.
Fields illustrates how the emerging values and efficacy of the spirit empower individuals, strengthen relationships, and change people from being ill-natured into peacemakers and vain philosophy into spiritual philosophy that transforms everyday lives.

Excerpt
I Resolve
I resolve...
To be myself,
to live in the now,
To love unconditionally,
To say no and not feel guilty.
To be the center of my own world,
To ask for pleasure but not demand it.
To value play as much as work,
To learn something new each day,
To be my own best friend.
To be happy now.
