Chicken Soup for the Soul: Think Positive: 101 Inspirational Stories about Counting Your Blessings and Having a Positive Attitude

I love all the short stories in all these types of books

Another great Chicken Soup book. I saw a lot of Zen thinking in this book. It showed me, once again, that acceptance of a situation, concentration on the present moment, and enjoyment of the good, positive aspects of all circumstances helps us to rise above difficulties. Some of the authors have illnesses or disabilities which would depress many people. Would you see the positive side of Alzheimer's Disease? Could you still be happy if you had macular degeneration and were slowly going blind? Could you have Asperger Syndrome and still want to travel the world knowing that you were directionally-challenged? I don't think I've ever made it through a Chicken Soup book without crying. And this book was no exception. It was so moving. I am a person who tries to look for the silver lining, but I often fall short, and this book has helped me to look for the beauty in all circumstances.

Boght a couple of these for my 80 yr. old mom who is in a nursing home. She really enjoys listening to them on her CD player with headphones.

This book comes at a much needed time. When our economy is in bad shape, natural disasters are everywhere, and the negative outweighs the positive every time we turn on the television, computer, or radio.These stories truly show people who have been given "lemons" and made "lemonade". The book has blessed me, and I have given several as gifts, which have in turn blessed friends and family.These stories are gems of faith, and can help anyone feel better when going through a rough time.The writers are gifted, and share much needed uplifting stories. This book is a must read!!

I was recently diagnosed with a serious disease. It has been difficult to stay positive that is for sure, but I know it is important in order to enjoy the now. I bought this book because I needed to hear inspiring stories of people who overcame illness, problems, and adversity. The stories on illness were encouraging. I read several stories before I go to bed, when I get up, and during work breaks. I'm "injecting positivity in my veins" even if I don't feel positive. I figure at some point if I keep dwelling on the positive, it will stick!

CSFS books are all 5 star and I have never had a disappointment yet!! I highly recommend them all and I have read over 30 of them!! Dog and Cat books are MEGA AWESOME!!

This is a great book for anyone. It is especially good for people who suffer from depression. I love it and plan to keep it so that I can reread some faith stories in my time of need.

Enjoyable

glad to have found another in their series that i have yet to read

A very motivating uplifting and life changing collection of individual incidents . Very much inspiring. Highly recommend to all for all walks of life.

My packaged arrived in Japan today! The book is in good condition and I’m excited to read it.

For all who love inspiring stories and need a little encouragement and boost now and then, it's a perfect book. To me, the books of that kind that I have so far, they are not just books to me, but more like good friends, that I can turn to whenever I need some comfort and inspiration.

I ordered 2 chicken soup books, one as present, and both arrived very quickly. I already have a lot of these books and have they make lovely gifts, depending on who is on the receiving end, e.g. - Chicken Soup for the Mothers Soul for Mothers Day or Chicken Soup for the Couples Soul for friends. Everyone shold have a least one of these books - very inspiring!
