Description
The Human Condition
A woman's life suddenly shattered by a stunning medical diagnosis... a man who survives unspeakable childhood trauma... despite suffering two heart attacks, prostate cancer, diabetes, bladder failure, and crippling respiratory problems, a wheelchair-bound veteran of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam considers himself a lucky man...
Passing these people on the street, or even living next door to them, you would likely never know the tragedies and triumphs they have gone through during their lives. Too often, we get wrapped up in our own little worlds and our own problems, and we tend to forget that other people have problems of their own. No one is unique. We are all just human beings doing the best we can.
Growing Apart in Today's Modern World
In today's society, some say our rapid-fire advances in technology bring the world closer and closer together, but in many ways, the opposite seems to be true. Sometimes it seems people are actually growing farther and farther apart, understanding - and caring - less and less about one another.
Discovering the True Meaning of Life
Former newspaper reporter and columnist John H. Clark has a gift for getting people to open up about their lives and tell incredible stories. In this third round of riveting personal profiles, he has put together a compelling tapestry of American life in Rattlesnakes and Route 66: a colorful collection of inspiring stories that prove real-life heroes live all around us. The stories range from heartwarming to heart-wrenching and, in the end, provide a compelling illustration that shows not only the power of the human spirit, but also that no matter our individual backgrounds, belief systems, cultures, etc., etc., when you get right down to it, people are a lot alike, and for the most part, all want the same three things: to be safe, to be happy, and to feel loved. Read this remarkable book today, and maybe learn something new about the true meaning of life.
