Rate this book
This book is a collection of short, concentrated thoughts and aphorisms that are intended to give the reader new insights and a different perspective on life.

The thoughts and aphorisms were derived from personal meditations and experiences and some are accompanied by a small graphic to help the reader retain the information. No explanations are provided to allow you to contemplate the meaning of the aphorisms as they apply to you, your relationships, and life in general.

Although the thoughts are quick to read, it is only through contemplation that the reader will get the full benefit of the material.

If you've ever found yourself wondering how to communicate with a friend, child, loved one, or oneself about some of the most important lessons in life in a light-hearted, easy-to-digest and non-pushy way, TINY THOUGHTS is nothing short of a godsend! This is the book to have handy when life seems to have taken a difficult turn; this is the book to keep at the ready along with the medical first aid kit, roadside emergency kit, and your ready bag. No, this isn't the typical survivalist's manual--though it can help people survive times of great hardship when otherwise they might abandon hope and positive action. The simple reason for this is given near the start of this book in a quote attributed to Buddha, "All that we are is a result of what we have thought."

The true magic of TINY THOUGHTS is the condensed wisdom and joy from each short passage that shines through like bright sunshine on a cloudy day. Playful illustrations accompany many of these short passages written in large typeface, in a way that invites the reader to flip through the pages and have some fun. And much of the fun in this book comes from finding one's own deeper thoughts and perspectives, such as how one chooses to respond to the question posed on page 120, "When we make a value judgment about somebody, does it reflect on who they are, or who we are?"

Spiritual seekers will adore the universal truths shared in TINY THOUGHTS accompanied by eye-catching drawings, such as, "In keeping with proper etiquette, it is OK to look at the past, just don't stare."

I love the marvelous cumulative healing effect that happens when flipping through the pages of TINY THOUGHTS. If books are food for the mind, brain and soul, TINY THOUGHTS presents readers with the perfect buffet of just as much nourishment as is required at any given time. Highly recommended!
