Summary: What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.....
Comment: Well, you've heard the phrase so many times before, but now a gifted writer has made the reader understand why this title rings true. I consider myself a spiritual person, but often when chaos appears in your life, all the principles that you once thought you grasped, go out the window. In the past year, I have been unemployed and gone through tumultuous personal relationships. After reading this book, I felt empowered! The writer was able to put everything in prospective like no other "self-help" book, or form of spirituality has EVER done for me. It all made sense. I have recommended this book to several friends who have also gone through rough times in this past year. They, too, have found this book to be a useful tool in their healing process. Every beautifully crafted chapter provides a source of COMFORT and WISDOM for anyone facing the challenges that life brings. Sure life is difficult, but after reading Ms.Schnall's brilliant work, I feel better equipped to deal with my own life. And for that, this book has indeed been a BLESSING!

Summary: I love the way Maxine Schall writes.
Comment: I've been raving about this book everywhere I go. It's become one of my all-time favorite reads so far. Silly me. I thought I wouldn't need it because I'm not experiencing any trauma now. But I was SO wrong!
Any time is a great time to read about people who have pulled through a terrible situation, or chosen to be creative in their problem solving, even when it seems like everything is lost forever. Maxine Schnall has written one of the most inspirational books I've ever read (and I read a lot!).
Two things really struck me about What Doesn't Kill You Makes You Stronger. First, the way Maxine writes. She got my attention from the Introduction! I felt as if she came to my house, sat at my kitchen table, and told me things only a compassionate wise woman would be able to say. She's frank. She's got moxie. She knows intimately what the people in her book felt because of her own experience with her daughter's brain injury. (I cried when I read Maxine's telling of her own personal experience and I'm no softie.)
The second thing that got through to my Soul from this book has to do with the saying "God doesn't give you more than you handle". I've always HATED that line and resisted it. In fact, if you ask me, it's a downright lie. But the way Maxine put it in her book really made sense. She points out that we can handle anything because we're sent a lot of help! The blessings are everywhere and she shows you how to recognize them.
I think this book is a gift to people that came straight from her heart. I highly recommend reading it and giving to all of your friends.
