The former First lady Michelle Obama revealed early Thursday that she would publish a second book.
The Light We Carry: Overcoming in Uncertain Times, which is scheduled for release on November 15, “offers readers a series of fresh stories and insightful reflections on change, challenge, and power.”
“Drawing from her experiences as a mother, daughter, spouse, friend, and First Lady, she shares the habits and principles she has developed to successfully adapt to change and overcome various obstacles — the earned wisdom that helps her continue to ‘become,'” Obama continued in her statement.
“I’ve learned it’s okay to recognize that self-worth comes wrapped in vulnerability and that what we share as humans on this earth is the impulse to strive for better, always and no matter what,” wrote Obama in the introduction of her book. “We become bolder in brightness. If you know your light, you know yourself. You know your own story in an honest way.”
She continued, “Self-knowledge builds confidence, which in turn breeds calmness and an ability to maintain perspective, which leads, finally, to be able to connect meaningfully with others—and this to me is the bedrock of all things. One light feeds another. One strong family lends strength to more. One engaged community can ignite those around it. This is the power of the light we carry.”
He continued, “I am confident that her new book will provide all of us with some urgently needed reassurance while rekindling a spirit of optimism about the power we all hold to positively shape our personal and collective futures.”
