I’m always down to read a great book. And one book I’ve read multiple times that I highly recommend checking out is The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. The book falls under the self-help genre and has an incredible amount of wisdom and insights into life, how we are, and how we can better navigate life and interact with others. As I read and revisited it, I found myself reflecting on my life, my relationships, and how I relate and interact with others. This book spoke to me in some unique and special ways because it was very practical in its delivery along with timely advice on how we can all stand to be better and continue working on ourselves. I don’t want to reveal what the four agreements are in this post, especially if you’ve never read the book, but I do suggest checking it out so you can see and learn more about them for yourself. This book is a game changer worth diving into.

We chilled at my place a few times, had a few phone conversations, and exchanged occasional texts, but eventually he stopped responding to me
