In Real Life por Karl Zinsmeister

In Real Life
powerful lessons for everyday living
edited by Karl Zinsmeister

This book is a wonderful collection of stories, snapshots from people's everyday lives. Funny ones, happy ones, sad ones, but all REAL ones. All of these stories originally appeared in a nationally known magazine called The American Enterprise, and have been lovingly edited and presented in this precious book.

As I read these simple true stories of the lives of others like myself, I felt warmed and happy and reaffirmed that America is not all horror or glitz and glamor. This was one of those books that I just couldn't put down and I am sure I will return to it often and plan on passing the stories on to others to help revive their hope and faith in everyday people.

Love & Light,

Riki Frahmann… (más)
