Story Behind The Book

Reviews

Rich Text Area.<strong>From <a href="http://theGratitudeSpot.blogspot.com">http://theGratitudeSpot.blogspot.com</a>, review by Shana Time: </strong>&quot;I do not recall the last time I read a book on Gratitude that stimulated me to think about my opinions and behaviors. I especially liked the section about the integrity of my words of gratitude. I too have said for years that I am grateful for my health but at the same time I am doing some things that undermine my health. I am overweight, and I don’t exercise, and sometimes I drink too much alcohol. I do have physical ailments that my doctor correlates to my unhealthy eating and sedentary lifestyle. <br />So when reading this chapter I had to be honest with myself if I was really grateful for my health, or grateful that my unhealthy habits weren't making my health any worse than it is. I’m not ready to change my eating and no exercise habits, but I am ready to be honest with myself.&quot;<br /><br /><strong>Review on Scribd by Archies Gal</strong>: &quot;I am impressed with the depth of intimacy shared by the writers in this book. I bought the book because I was intrigued by the title, and the suggestion of ecstasy of life as related to gratitude. I have believed myself to be grateful for most of my life. In reading some of the stories and quietly taking the time to be introspective, I can see where I missed out on some of the true essence of my own feelings. This book is timely for me and I look forward to sharing it with my friends and family. They deserve ecstasy of life as well. My gratitude to all the authors of this book.&quot;
