After seeing its transformational effect on himself and others in his long career as a probation officer, Jennis W. White realized just how powerful and life-changing poetry could be. He employed verse to introduce important concepts and to inspire, motivate, and uplift people who were in despair. Something about verse seemed to help when other methods of communication failed. Looking Inside, Glancing Outside gathers together White's inspirational and uplifting poetry, offering lyrical, rhythmic support and encouragement to those who need it most. Being able to identify and celebrate the good in life plays a large role in recovering from despair, depression, or trauma. White's poems touch on the beauty of the natural world, the comfort and love of successful relationships, and the importance of parenting with love and care. Understanding that loss is part of life, White touches on mortality and grief, showing how these can also be part of a fulfilling life. Taken as a whole, White's verses are a love song to the resilience and beauty of the human soul. Explore his hopeful, positive view of the world, and realize that no matter who has hurt or wounded you, you remain a unique and worthwhile individual.
