Cute little book with great quotes. Came across it and read it 10min or so. The quotes would be great on some oracle cards with different imagery.

Best book ever for me. It helped me through some really rough patches in my life. Each page gives you some thing to reflect upon and point out things that you may need to change. If you are having a hard time and not afraid to be honest with yourself, then pick this book up.
