Pass the Jelly: Tales of Ordinary Enlightenment

This book is both very funny and unexpectedly profound. It provides simple, easy-to-relate-to, yet seldom-considered wisdom on the human condition. As the author takes us through one unusual day, he offers insights on living along with comical, tender memories of his childhood. Engaging and fast-moving, the book will make you laugh and nod in agreement as you enjoy its unexpected twists and turns. Gary Crowley has seen through many of the false assumptions human beings bring with them as they encounter life, and he brings a fresh and distinctive voice to his narrative. Simplicity with depth, laughter with wisdom, place "Pass the Jelly" among those rare books that successfully entertain and inspire. Crowley presents a constantly changing interplay of opposites. He opens your mind with humour, overcoming any resistance to the realities of existence. The Pass the Jelly Principle (People do what they do. That's what they do. And that is it.) will help you see that we are all bound within the chain of cause and effect. His formula for instant compassion and his notion that "when you pick up the stick of life, you get both ends" offer rules-to-live-by wisdom that will stick with you long after you finish the book.
