Book Description

March 5, 2007
From the author of the #1 Best Seller, The Why Cafe, comes this much anticipated next work. An inspiring and emotionally powerful story set amidst the mystery, beauty, and allure of Africa.

Jack is a young man struggling to find happiness in his life. Although he doesn't know why, the one image that seems to capture his soul is that of Africa. With solitary focus, he saves for two years and then embarks on a journey to find the source of the calling he has felt.

Halfway around the world, a very old, very wise African woman named Ma Ma Gombe is on a journey of her own. She is seeking a fabled destination she was told of as a child-"a place where you can see the earth be born, and then watch the world go to sleep, a place so beautiful that words cannot describe it." It is a destination known to her only as "the birthplace of all."

As if their paths were destined to intertwine, these two unlikely travelers meet shortly after Jack's arrival in Africa and join together on a journey that changes both of their lives forever.

Walk with them as they cross the African continent on foot. Marvel with them at the animals they encounter, the people they meet, and the adventures they experience. Like Jack, find through the teachings of Ma Ma Gombe that piece of your soul yearning to be set free.

In Life Safari John P. Strelecky has created a story that inspires and taps the spirit for adventure in readers everywhere. A tale that will touch your emotions, open your eyes to the amazing continent of Africa, and open your heart to the amazing potential within all of us.

More About the Author

Following a life changing event when he was thirty-three years old, John was inspired to sit down and tell the story of The Why Café, his first book. He had no previous experience or academic training as a writer.

Within a year after it's release, word of mouth support from readers had spread the book across the globe--inspiring people on every continent, including Antarctica. It went on to become a #1 Best Seller, and translated into twenty-one languages. John has gone on to write other books, including Life Safari and The Big Five for Life. He coauthored the book How to be Rich and Happy.

Through his writings and appearances on television and radio, John's messages have inspired millions of people to live life on their terms. He has been honored alongside Oprah Winfrey, Wayne Dyer, and Deepak Chopra as one of the one hundred most inspirational thought leaders in the field of leadership and personal development. All of this continues to humble and amaze him.

Since 2004, he has been actively involved with helping individuals discover and fulfill their PFE (Purpose for Existing) and Big Five for Life. He also trains coaches around the world to do the same for their clients using the techniques he has created.

When he isn't writing or speaking, John spends extensive time fulfilling another part of his Big Five for Life--traveling the world. In addition to his time in Africa, he has taken additional extended trips to the Amazon Basin, Yucatan Peninsula, South America, SE Asia, Europe and China.

5.0 out of 5 stars Parables teaching us what we know but too often forget to practice, February 9, 2012
By 
This review is from: Life Safari (Paperback)
This is an "easy" read, in the sense that it was a relatively short and quick read.

The book is also a "tough" read in the sense that it makes you think. And the things you are thinking about are things you probably already know, or have been exposed to: having dreams and goals, happiness and purpose. Working to get dreams and goals accomplished. Willingness to let people along the way help you out, give you insights. Actually being willing to ask for help and insights. Learning from others.

The book is a parable that is full of smaller parables. Very teaching oriented, through the use of practical stories.

My hope is that I integrate the ideas and "advice" and parables of this book into what has already started in my life, as I focus on my dreams and goals, and pursue what the book calls your "Big Five for Life.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who needs some inspiration to start working toward actually realizing their wishes and desires.

What a wonderful adventure! I've given this book to my entire family - all ages - it is so worthwhile.

Read it by yourself, or with friends or family - you can spend hours talking about what the book means to you!

This is a gift that keeps on giving - thank you, John!
