It's definitely time for an inspiring story to get us through this challenging time. I've revisited and rounded up some of my favorites -- some new, some old and some surprises. It's definitely a mixed bag.
Books and stories are the absolute fabric of life in so many ways. Motivational true stories can really pick you up, and exciting adventures in fiction can sweep you away on a journey. Then, there are some fantastic factual ideas that can enlighten us about how we choose to live our lives. There are spiritual journeys that can give us comfort as well.
I love books, so I hope you will find some here on my list to enjoy during this difficult time we are all going through together, yet alone. If you have extra time on your hands, now can be the perfect time to explore some reading.
Stay safe, and enjoy.
