Book Review – I Wish You Enough by Bob Perks

image
Bob Perks has written a warm, friendly, and inspiring book in I Wish You Enough: Embracing Life’s Most Valuable Moments One Wish at a Time.
He originally wrote a poem by the same title, which became the basis for this book.  The poem speaks of wishing “enough” for those we love… “enough sun to keep your attitude bright.” And “enough rain to appreciate the sun more.”
The book is a compilation of anecdotal stories relating to the idea behind each phrase of the poem (sun/rain, happiness/pain, gain/loss, hello/goodbye).  The stories are very touching and thought-provoking.  This is a book that will give one the desire to embrace all of life – the good and the bad – as a gift from our Father in Heaven. 
The author’s words brought me to tears several times, and had me bursting with joy a few times too.  This book is a treasure you will want to share with everyone you love.  It helped me see a richness in every day life that changed my perspective for the better and has helped me remember to slow down and savor each moment.
This is a book well worth reading and passing on to those special people in your life!
Have a beautiful day! :)

  1. I haven't heard of that book. I need to add it to my list. I also didn't know you have to write that little ditty at the end of your blog when giving a testimonial!
