Pearls of Wisdom for Creating a Joyful Life

 

After 58 years of living and learning, I realized that I’d finally reached a point in my life where I felt a sense of joy. I’m not certain how I arrived at this stage, whether through experience or wisdom or just getting older, but I felt it was important to reflect on this phenomenon and pass along my conclusions.

 

Unfortunately, I learned these lessons as a result of making the wrong choices and that’s why it took me so long to reach my current harmonious state. But you won’t need to make these same mistakes; you can learn from mine. That’s why I wrote this guide, so that other women, both young and old, might be spared some of life’s pain and frustration.

What’s Up With That?

Humorous Short Stories about Life in Modern-Day America

 

Have you ever encountered a situation that seemed so bizarre your only response was, “What’s up with that?” This book includes 19 humorous short stories that depict a few of these “head-scratching” moments you might have encountered at some point during your life.

 

If you’ve ever eaten at a restaurant where the lights were so dim you couldn’t see your food, been trapped in an elevator with someone wearing so much cologne you couldn’t breathe, or been stuck in a traffic jam in the “drive-thru” lane at a fast food restaurant, then you can relate!

 

Life in modern-day America can be challenging—to say the least—so why not look at the humorous side and vent some of our stress through chuckling instead of exploding? Take a few moments to sit down, relax and enjoy these light-hearted tales.  Size: 6”X9”, 60 pages, ISBN: 978-0-9842438-0-8.  $6.95
