Amazing Book!!! Shirley Guppy Anyone looking to improve their lives should definetly take a look at this stuff. This book literally changed my life.

I dropped out of college for a year, and recently ended up in the hospital with suicidal thoughts. I'm not sure if I would be here if I hadn't accidentally picked up this book.

Treasured resouce Great book, I renewed it so many times at the library that I had to buy a copy!
