Happy Birthday, Raashi, by Raashida Khan

Raasai loves. She loves life. She loves love. Above all, Raashi loves people. In them she sees her spirit and her spirituality - her true self. Believing that a connection to others is the cornerstone of understanding who we are, she has explored and nurtured her relationship with herself and those around her.

Happy Birthday, Raashi is a celebration of intense emotion, hope, love, laughter, loss, learning and letting go captured in beautiful verse. It is an invitation to step into Raashi's reality and fantasy as she selflessly shares the gift she honours herself with - that of living in the moment.
