My
Thoughts: Throughout the book
the Vision boxes are called mojo boxes, shrine containers and Montano himself
refers to them as "Dream boxes. These
boxes are collections of special moments in a persons life and the directions
given throughout the book are very easy to follow. They make great momentos for travels, special
moments, special things. I loved the
book. The pictures are so inspiring and
I could hardly wait to complete my first one.
