Synopsis

Already an internet phenomenon, these wise and insightful lessons by popular newspaper columnist and Pulitzer Prize finalist Regina Brett will make you see the possibilities in your life in a whole new way.

When Regina Brett turned 50, she wrote a column on the 50 lessons life had taught her. She reflected on all she had learned through becoming a single parent, looking for love in all the wrong places, working on her relationship with God, battling cancer and making peace with a difficult childhood. It became one of the most popular columns ever published in the newspaper, and since then the 50 lessons have been emailed to hundreds of thousands of people.

Brett now takes the 50 lessons and expounds on them in essays that are deeply personal. From "Don't take yourself too seriously-Nobody else does" to "Life isn't tied with a bow, but it's still a gift," these lessons will strike a chord with anyone who has ever gone through tough times--and haven't we all?

My prayers suffered, and I started to feel that bit of resentment toward life rise up in me......more

Trochę ckliwego bullshitu, trochę lekcji, które są do zaimplikowania dopiero jak będę co najmniej 20 lat starsza i mocniej dotknięta życiem. Ale pośród tego wszystkiego znajdują się również słowa, które zostaną na dłużej i które, mam nadzieję, chociaż do pewnego stopnia wdrożę do mojego sposobu myśl......more
