My World and Welcome to It!

These are my thoughts and opinions about life in general. I also get daily prompts from DSP which inspire me to write. If I throw in some scrapbook pages I've done, photos I've taken, and stories about me, you will have an idea about my loony life!

Blog Prompt: The book I'm reading right now/just read is teaching me...

The book I've just finished reading is called Lucky Man by Michael J. Fox. It talks about how he has had to deal with his Parkinson's Disease and how it affected his attitude. I found the book very motivational and inspirational. I know my hubby was probably glad I finished it because it was the topic of my conversation every evening. It is a book I would recommend to others because it help you appreciate your own life and what you have. It was interesting to see how Michael J. Fox continues to live his life in a positive manner. It helped me see him as a real person instead of some famous actor.

ooh, I'll have to put that one on my list, it sounds very interesting. I've also admired Michael and would love to read what he has to say!

Very interesting. I don't read a lot of non-fiction, but it's really true that some people's real life stories are more interesting than other people's imagined ones!

LOL - thought you just said you were too tired for serious reads? :) Sounds interesting. Amazing how some people can stay so positive when they are dealt a difficult hand in life. It's something to aspire to.

I will have to find that one. I have always admired Michael J. Fox for his gift as an actor and for how he had dealt with his problem, even continuing to act. He is an amazing man.
