This review is from: Simple Living for the Worn Out Woman (Lists to Live By) (Hardcover)

I'm an 'inspirational fanatic.' If there's anything out there that talks about ways to keep your sanity, slow down, speed up, calm down, take it slow, stop & smell the roses, count your blessings, run to God, let go & let God, hope, pray, dream, etc., etc., etc., I'm all over it. Which is why I love this adorable little book. Again, found it randomly @ the library and read it 3 times in the 2 weeks I had it. It was so 'simple', yet the words carried a lot of weight. I hated returning it & am going to purchase it... as soon as I get done typing this :-)

This book is an excellent companion to the "Worn Out Woman." I am using them to teach a women's Sunday School Class. It fully met my expectations and I can recommend it highly for women who need a positive lift.
