This book was born from quiet, intentional observation. As both a parent and a hyper-focused observer, the author began to notice something deeply overlooked in parenting: while we often raise children using one approach, we forget that each child is a distinct individual, created by God with their own nature, needs, and way of understanding the world. Through lived experience, including the humbling realization that love does not always equal attentiveness, this book explores how parenting changes when we truly see the souls entrusted to us.
Although rooted in parenting, this book reaches beyond it. At its core, it is about learning how to honor and nurture the souls around us, children, family members, friends, and even those not directly connected to us. By inviting readers to move beyond control and toward discernment, presence, and grace, the book offers guidance for building healthier, more intentional relationships. Just as God grants freedom within structure, it calls us to extend that same balance of love, understanding, and care to others, recognizing the divine individuality within every soul.
