Want to share my words of wisdom from the 'Universe' this morning!
"What if all you had to look forward to were the things that were free, like sunrises, wagging tails, holding hands, and your imagination. Would it all be worth it?
Probably.
What if you could trade in some of your free stuff for fabulous wealth, fulfilling work, gorgeous looks, or anything else that your heart desired. Would it all be worth it?
Does a bear sleep in the woods? Is the Pope Catholic? Would you like syrup with your french toast?
Visualize. Before the price goes up."
About Me
- Cindy
- Things I like: all animals, except creepy crawlies; curling up with a good book especially if it's raining outside, all things "spring", walking in the woods, daffodils and hyacinths, the smell of lilaacs blooming, cherry jolly ranchers and sprees, the color pink, vanilla frappacinos from Starbuck's and a gooey pizza with a coke!
Moloka'i by Alan BrennertMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I admit that I knew nothing about leprosy or Molokai before reading this book. I was leary to read it because human suffering is just not what I consider a 'feel good' kind of book.
How wrong I was! Yes, the book was at times heartbreaking. But it was overshadowed by the hope that humans can find during desperate, challenging, or hopeless situations. Just a wonderful novel about the strength people find deep inside to cope. It was so informative and at the same time became so engaging that it was hard to put down. The journey that Ruth led through life was just inspirational, and I would consider it a great book to read if you are feeling sorry for yourself! The author transported me, through his writing, to this small island and continued to lead me through all of the obstacles and endeavors of a life that could have or should have been so small. This life was made great and worthwhile because of the attitude and strength the author gave to the main character and other characters involved.
I can't say enough good things about this book. If you haven't read it yet, don't hesitate. You won't be sorry!
