Product Description
Open your eyes—and your heart—to discover "something wonderful" in your life Have you ever wondered if the way you look at life has anything to do with what happens to you? If you are "tuned in" properly, will radiant moments magically appear? Are we, perhaps, missing the happiness that’s ready for us right now because we’re too busy waiting and looking for it in the wrong places? Author and speaker Robin L. Silverman believes happiness is all around us. Something Wonderful Is About to Happen . . . is a collection of true stories that confirms the belief that life’s special moments are constantly available to us—we just need to readjust our vision! Just imagine . . . · "Texas Lil," a dynamic woman with a heart of

gold,drives cross-country to deliver a brisket

dinner to 10,000 flood victims · An elderly woman wishes for cash and the very next

day receives a surprise letter · An overworked, stressed-out mother transforms an

argument with her husband into a renewal of their

love · A middle-aged man risks his livelihood to switch

careers and ends up helping hundreds of farmers

find profitable opportunities and financial freedom Every one of us has an opportunity to create "something wonderful" for ourselves, and for those we care about. In Something Wonderful Is About to Happen . . . , readers can learn how to make it all happen with special "love light" ideas following each inspiring story. Robin L. Silverman’s highly original and inspiring work shows you how your life can be filled with the magical moments that transform trouble, open doors, and make every day an adventure in happiness.

5.0 out of 5 stars Men or women will find value in this book, April 19, 2003
Had reviewed her Ten Gifts book a few years ago and wanted this book partly because I like her writing style and partly because what she writes about is a major interest of mine. And she certainly didn't disappoint me.

The nice things about this book is its nice to have a book when you're hungry to read something of value that has something of value to share. The dozens of stories about the unexpected gifts that come into our lives, that are written about, make this book a treat when you want something to read that will energize you. Sorta like a cool fresh clean glass of water on a hot day, or the hot cup of chocolate as the snow falls outside.

Since I am an avid gardener I see each of the dozens of stories she has, as blooms in my garden that I can enjoy every day and for years to come. Like each new flower season and new blooms each story seems to offer a new lesson each time I re-read the book.

Men and women should like this book. And its a great book to give to someone whose in a rut, for a birthday or any occasion. And yes I have some favorites in the book. Namely You Never Know-the wonder of nonjudgement, Beautiful Hands-The wonder of self acceptance, The ... Miracle, Someone Who Cares, A Hug From God, Lost and Found and Strong Stuff-The wonder of achieving personal balance.

5.0 out of 5 stars "A Breath of Fresh Air" :), February 17, 2003
A WONDERFUL "Breath of Fresh Air" is what Robin L. Silverman's newest book is...

Ahhhhhh... in this time of so many "scarey" stories on television or in our newspapers, it is a refreshing, (and MUCH appreciated) change to read Robin's newest book. "Something Wonderful is About to Happen".It is a collection of true, (and oh-so-wonderful) stories of real people and the wonderful things that happened to them when their hearts and spirits were open to them. While you are reading this joyful book, look up and glance in the mirror... you will find that you are smiling!(inside and out!).

After reading this book your heart will be open to receiving "somthing wonderful" in YOUR life as well. Get ready! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Our Lives Are Wonderful, September 23, 2004
By L. K. Anderson (North Dakota, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We've all been taught to look for things and happiness outside of ourselves. We've had the ability and resources for happiness all this time--inside ourselves. We are able to create for ourselves the environment we live in. Robin has some eye opening stories that will help us see this. We can't control cicumstances but we can control our reaction to them. The Love Light at the end of each story is a great idea source. Let your happiness and joy flow!
