{"product_id":"9780983176596","title":"Confessions of a Crackpot","description":"Think of this book as a \"cheerleader for the human spirit\"-a light shining through the cracks of this resurrected pot that helps to keep folks moving forward, instead of wandering alone in the dark. \u003cp\u003eNo matter how badly shattered your pot-no matter what your struggles or your circumstances-you can be whole, once again. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOh it often takes time and effort to glue the fragments back together again. But remember this: the cracks that remain are where the light can shine through!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI've always tried to catch my readers with a good hook, develop a simple concept, proffer a kernel of wisdom to munch, then wrap it all up with a droll twist that can leave folks with a smile-if not an outright chuckle-while addressing all manner of subjects that expose the foibles of humanity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeaven forbid the use of moralistic schmaltz! But a slightly \"cracked\" approach I have done my best to employ without fail. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnly when we learn to laugh at ourselves and not take things so seriously can we finally appreciate this roller-coaster ride called life and begin to digest its truths.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Paper Bridges","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47008747618544,"sku":"9780983176596","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780983176596_p0.jpg?v=1763885724","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780983176596","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
