You'll cheer, tsk-tsk, sigh, search the heavens, ache, think again, remember when..., nod knowingly, and laugh out loud. You'll recognize the ruts you're in, consider your mistakes, hear a confession, long for your chance, reach for a hug, face uncertainty, sing out, applaud, be surprised, and be grateful. You'll be unbelieving and have faith all at once, finding compassion for yourself and others. From a masterful storyteller, this extraordinary book knows what you need before you do, and what better way to grow than with a story that will become a part of you. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThirty-one wise, heartfelt, and generous slices of American life are served up in fiction and nonfiction, fantasies, a fable, a poem, an ancient text, and a tall tale.
