Do you need down to earth inspiration?

This is a must for anybody's personal library. No matter where you are in life, Sir John has done us all a great favour by writing this book. He uses a range of philosiphies and theologies to explain everyday events in our lives. Are you overwhemled or caught up in day to day events? Mr. Templeton's collections of various authors and his own works will explain sometimes difficult situations into easy to understand english. For example, lesson "No one knows the weight of another's burden" on page 20 is about the young man in a male therapy group. The men were in a group session and the person in the story is a new participant. The mediator explained that each person would have a few minutes to explain his problem and what they plan to do about it. Natually, the new person thought with his marital break down, near bankruptcy and poor health, his would be one of the saddest cases. Before it was his turn to speak, a handsome young man in his 20's revealed that he was terminally ill and had 6 months to live. Rather than dwell on it, he decided to take up flying lessons and live! Naturally, everybody else was taken off guard and rediscovered the gifts they have. Templeton's 200 lessons in this book address almost every situation around. You don't have to be struggling with life to enjoy this. Everybody needs a bit of down to earth insiration and you'll have it with this!

Warning! Don't read if you like to be negative.

Great therapy. It is an easy read. Something you can open a few minutes a day to lift your spirits, and it doesn't hurt to read over and over again. It may not dazzle your senses (nonfiction), but it should make you feel good.

Just In Time Character Management

This book is very inspiring. I ordered a copy for each of my three young children. As I re-read my copy I take my children's copy and make notes to them that pertain to their own specific identity and characteristics. It is my hope that they use the book to remember me when I am gone and am no longer able to converse with them about life and the challenges it will certainly bring them. I drew an outline of my hand in the front cover of each of their books and told them that if they ever needed to hold my hand that they can do so by placing their hand on mine in the book. I would recommend this book to anyone that looks for the good in life and would like to pass on a positive attitude and appreciation for time honored wisdom to their children
