Add heaping handfuls of caring, love and charity--serves all

This book is in the format of the beloved "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series and consists of stories from the lives of women; women who work on the PTA, women who have an extraordinary child named Joel who makes flag safety pins for everyone in the post office after the anthrax scare moved him to action. And also women who have had to stay calm while removing handfuls of peanut butter from the cat or toilet seat. There is a check list about life and what you really want from it--a helpful exercise for anyone to sit down and take stock of things that matter. This is a perfect Mother's Day or birthday or anniversary gift for any woman on your list. And a fun read, too. Enjoy.

I love this book. As always the Chicken Soup stories are wonderful and inthis new book they perfectly relate to each topic they introduce. Butwhat's incredible about Life Lessons for Women is that it presents a simple,do-able plan to simplify and enrich your life. Somehow Marstonmakes you feel as if this is the book you'll truly incorporate into yourlife. The vision of what your life will become is believable. Looking atissues like "Recognize What's Important" and making a "Top Ten Values YouUse to Define Yourself" and evaluating whether they are reflected in youreveryday life immediately changes your perspective and gives you thenudge needed to rearrange priorities. Through reading this book,you will give yourself permission to put yourself at the top of your "to dolist." This is a well-balanced, complete guide for changing your life,presented in a way that you can immediately start applying it and reap thebenefits from the get go. A must for anyone from a stressed-out professionalto a frazzled mom!

No Regrets

I've been reading self help books for 25 years but this one is the one that changed my life. The stories combined with practical tools and exercises helped me to make the changes I've wanted to make forever, but simply couldn't until this book. I've always tried to be what you OTHERS wanted me to be. That is a lot of work, and not very satisfying. The *Questions Worth Asking* were wonderful. The one that really made me stop and think was: When I'm 80, what will I regret having done or not done? My answer, which shocked me -- was to dance. So, at the magic age of 45, I started salsa classes, and I'm having the time of my life! This book taught me how to be fearless and how to live my dreams. Thank you, Stephanie!
