About the Author
At age seventeen, Mike Watson began a search for his roots that would last a lifetime. Although both his birth parents had already died, and his birthmother was told he was stillborn, Watson obtained a deep understanding of gratitude, love, and purpose.
In 1993, he created the Why Mom Deserves a Diamond® writing contest to offer children, families, and educators an opportunity to reflect on the power of recognition and the appreciation of those significant in our lives.
Through decades of personal reflection, Watson has continued to explore a central question: What does it mean to fully live?
For those with deep curiosity: Living Promises explores: Who am I? Why am I here? What is truth? What is the Divine? And what is already within me?
For parents: Living Promises offers simple principles and memorable stories that can help parents begin meaningful conversations with their children about how we treat ourselves, one another, and the world around us.
For teachers: Living Promises contains dozens of reflective stories and poems that can become a classroom adventure for all grade levels.

From the Final Pages of Living Promises
"As you complete the circular journey of the Living Promises, you arrive where you have always been. Every step you have taken and every thought you have held has been its unfolding. And now, as you turn the final page, nothing new has been given—only revealed. As you close this book, you may notice something profound: the Kingdom is not a distant place to be found. It has lived within you from the very beginning.”
