    Nice book review. I think I'll have to put it on my library list and pick it up the next time I'm there. Thanks! I'm currently reading Voices of the Heart by Linda Lambert Pestana. It's a must read for anyone facing difficult choices. Linda reminds us that even if we fall we can still have the strength and courage to pull ourselves up and go on. The story is a personal portrayal but the journey is universal. I'm really enjoying it!

Feels like Home

Lyrics | Edwina Hayes - Feels Like Home lyrics I really love this song. It's a song from the movie MY Sisters Keeper. The beach scene was the saddest part because of the song. I cried and I was moved. I realized a lot of things in life. The song is really a good choice. I love this part of the song:     "And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along  And change my life the way you've done" I wonder who's that someone. But I'm pretty much sure HE is always there for me. I'm gonna cry again and I hate it.I hope you like this as much as I do.           crying mode...

That trademark became crowd-pleasing around the globe and that what makes Jab...
