Summary: Delightful
Comment: Something to Smile About is heart warming and easy to read. Zig Ziglar is a master story teller, and this delightful collection of short stories is great for bedtimes regardless of one's age. I've enjoyed every work that Zig has done, and he's had a significant, positive impact on my family for 3 generations. Buy this book and your life will be enriched, and then buy another another Ziglar book, and then another...you'll be glad you did!

Summary: Great for journal entries!
Comment: As a language arts teacher, I use this book for prompts for my 8th grade students' journal writings. They are able to think outside of themselves and see how problems are only problems if you let them be.

Summary: Never be victimized again - only victorious!
Comment: Dr. Schuller's first chapter is so aptly titled! "Welcome To The Human Race" - we are all hurting human beings! What sets us apart is our ability to recognize that the hurt is not punishment from God, but instead a reality of our life on earth. Schuller takes his reader through a series of practical analyses of hurt, in much the same way that Elisabeth Kubler Ross taught us to move through the stages of grief. How heavy is the hurt? How hardy (what is its lifespan)? and, How healthy is this hurt? He reminds us frequently that we must constantly examine our priorities and renew our faith that with God, all things are possible. Not an easy road to take, but worth it.

The book is written in an easy to follow manner and uses real life illustrations of both the author's personal struggles with hurt and those of others who survived life's worst tragedies and came out of these fires strengthened and renewed. Had Dr.Schuller omitted his own experiences, this would be just another sampling of inspirational story gathering. But as the "father of possibility thinking" was feeling victimized, he realized that he "needed to delve deep into the meat and potatoes of handling hurts and get over that seductive, self-absorbing, pity-party reaction." And he shares the wisdom of his exploration with us in an easy to read format that time and again reminds us of Schuller's powerful commitment to God.

Both believers and non-believers will find this book helpful as they search for the skills to cope with the hurts that come with divorce, death, destruction and our perceived failures. I liken it to Christian counselor Gary Smalley's teaching that we must learn to "treasure hunt" within a hurtful experience and find ways to bring acceptance and peace back to our lives.

This may be the ultimate gift book for a hurting friend!
