The book's 200 short-short chapters address practically every aspect of life—from food and exercise to ways of thinking, simplifying, and taking action; meditation and spiritual pursuits; and gratitude and kindness. Whether during a precious break at home or a moment of peace in a parking lot, this book, accompanied by 100 charming and delightful illustrations, can be absorbed quickly by any woman for whom the thought of having to plod through yet another dense tome about fitness, or style, or whatever is, indeed, quite the opposite of happiness.

Page: 448. View: 9641Some people have 14,000 Things to Be Happy About. You’re not one of them.

11,002 Things to Be Miserable About is a list of all the reasons NOT to wake up in the morning. Ironically enough, when you put all of them under one cover, it’s actually very funny. This decidedly absurd inventory of misery is perfect for sardonic and disaffected youth, for people seeking gifts for Traumatic Event Birthdays (like 21, 25, 30, 40, and, well, anything after 40), and for anyone else with an offbeat sense of humor. Some of the entries are pretty basic, like imitation crabmeat, student loans, and David Hasselhoff, but other entries actually include educational things, like dust mites, which make up one-third of the weight of a six-year-old pillow.

See, you can laugh and learn. Author: Barbara Ann Kipfer.

In the same chunky format as the authorfs bestselling 14,000 Things to Be Happy About, The Wish List presents a compulsively readable list of unexpected goals.

There are wishes large-retrace Odysseus' route around the Mediterranean-and wishes small-find a genuine arrowhead. There are artistic wishes-write a sonnet. Athletic wishes-learn to box. Practical wishes-master the rudiments of plumbing. Whimsical wishes-become a taster at Ben & Jerry's. And fantasy wishes-live in a Venetian palazzo.
