I was not impressed with that book—very slow narration, and I did not learn as much as I expected.

Quotes by Barbara Koltuska-Haskin (?)

“As long as you are breathing, there is more right with you than wrong with you
-Jon Kabat-Zinn
This is a motto for my book.

To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow
-Audrey Hepburn
I put the above quote in my book.

I finished my book with the thoughtful quote from Harvey Mackay.
Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about those who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would most likely be worth it.”
