Customer Reviews

Thought provoking words and images

Mark L. Tompkins wonderfully shares his perspective of the world with us through his beautiful poems and photography.

passion and vision

This book is so easy to personally identify with. The poems and photographs inspire my own vision and passion; not someone elses. I keep it on my coffee table and refer to it a moment at a time.

A wonderful read.

I received the book as a gift and it now resides among my other collection on the coffee table. It's a wonderfully insightful look into the trials and tribulations of the human "condition" with photography that is both poignant and storytelling in itself. There's probably a little bit of us all in this book..

Deeply Moving

Fabulous read and a fantastic gift for someone you care about! Almost every poem touched me in some way. I feel a real connection with the messages Mark Tompkins imparts, his themes of slowing down to live each moment, making your life count for something, moving through the moments of pain and disappointment, etc. His photographs that are paired with the poems are breathtaking and poignant. I can't recommend this enough!

Remembering to Live

A book filled with beautiful sentiments in addition to beautiful photographs. Mr. Tompkins reveals much about himself in both his poetry and his pictures and by doing so, as the name of the book implies, he encourages each one of us to remember to live, and reminds us of the common thread that we all share with the rest of humanity.
