{"product_id":"9781617042140","title":"Thorns To Be Thankful For: Personal Stories Of Overcoming Hard Times","description":"One of the greatest things about being human is that we get to experience a wide range of experiences.\u003cp\u003eSure, sometimes we're hit with low periods that make us question everything.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe also have the high periods - the feeling of new love, the first warm day out of winter; the feeling you get when your favorite song comes on the radio.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile they don't feel like it at the time, low periods certainly have their value. They make way for revelations, wisdom, rebirth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePersonally, I love to operate under the belief that \"everything happens for our highest good\". When \"bad\" things are happening, I like to think that it's because it's making way for a great learning lesson or an even bigger blessing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat's what this book is about.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou're going to read stories of people overcoming mind-bending hardship and coming to the other side much stronger.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome of the things people in this book went through are unthinkable. But they got through it - and when you read, hopefully you realize that you can get through anything too.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will help you peek into the fabric of peoples' souls. You'll hear their stories, feel inspired, and realize that we're all in this together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is my hope that as tough things come up in your life, you'll think back to a story you read here and realize that there's hope on the other side.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"River Styx Publishing Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47031692689648,"sku":"9781617042140","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781617042140_p0.jpg?v=1763853641","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781617042140","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
