Today and every other day, errands, technological challenges, demands and needs of others, and the prevalence of controversial world news lurk around every corner. At some point, we may wonder how to balance everything and go to sleep feeling a sense of satisfaction that it has been a good day. How many of us really take the time to consider the bigger picture and strategize what to do when life feels too complicated? How could we find a true sense of contentment in our everyday existence? Young parents, after all, methodically go through each day overseeing the daily needs of their children. Others balance business demands, time with family and friends, and outside interests. We get to meetings where and when we need to; we manage homes, bills, text messages, blogs, and complex daily schedules. Then, we go to bed exhausted, fall asleep (or not), and wake up the next day, wondering, hmmm, what was yesterday all about?What if we could consider the issues we face, and, at the same time, challenge ourselves from within? How could we do that and what would that look like?Imagine meeting with a small group once a month, at someone's home or through an on-line group, all bringing different life experiences and expertise to discussions. Or, if you prefer to do this by yourself, envision thinking about the topics in the privacy of your home. People try daily to balance their hectic personal, family, business, political, and social commitments. A need has surfaced in adults of all ages to set aside time to define themselves and their values and examine what is truly important in life. This is a book for anyone who wants to consider topics of interest alone or to form a group and engage in reflective discussion about such subjects as forgiveness, authenticity, letting go, criticism, curiosity, gratitude, and many more. Included are original poems by the author on each topic, fictitious scenarios to begin discussions, and famous quotes to discuss. This is a user-friendly tool for single adults, couples, parents, women's groups, temple or church groups, schools working on team building, businesses seeking personal growth of employees, and any individual who wants to revisit personal priorities, improve relationships, and live a more meaningful life.
