When Life Is A Barbed Wire Fence

From one farm kid to another- Thanks for the great walk down memory lane. Growing up on a farm has more life lessons than one can ever learn at a university. A PHD in life taught by someone that didn't have the benefits of college is PRICELESS. Your grandfather sounds like a wise man and many can benefit from remembering his words. A great read for all ages. This is the story of wise stories that are no longer told in our fast paced world.

When Life Is A Barbed Wire Fence

I was lucky enough to have trained Greg Winston at Xerox in Memphis. Greg mentions me in his book, but never told me he used me as an example as that is the type of person he is. I heard about the book through a company who used Greg as a motivational speaker, bought it, and read it. I am so motivated by Greg's work. You never know how you effect a person's life! Great book! I was just downsized from a company after having two great years with them. I am in a barb part of life. I read the book often as it keeps me motivated. It has me on the smooth part of the Barbed Wire even though I am job searching for employment which is a barb in my life!

I recieved this book as a gift. As I read "When Life Is A Barbed Wire Fence" I not only felt, but saw the stories unfold in front of me. One of my favorite stories in the book is called Treat'em Right...Our authors Granddaddy goes on to make the comment, "you can't treat everybody the same, but you can treat everybody right" There are many life lessons in this book and I would and do Highly recommend it to folks of all ages. I look forward to Mr. Winstons next book. And congratulate him on this one.
