A joyful, refreshing reminder that true fulfillment isn't found in what you own, but in the simple, overlooked intangibles right in front of us
Our modern-day consumer culture has espoused the same philosophy for decades: that money equals success, fortune equals happiness, and if we aren’t happy, we aren’t “shopping in the right store.” In our cutthroat, everyone-for-themselves material economy it’s easy to forget that life is more than having purchase power. But how do we remember what’s truly important?
Believing that the opportunities to practice “life support” include choosing life-affirming words, thoughts, experiences, and deeds, self-proclaimed warrior for optimism Joann Davis borrows from ancient and more contemporary wisdom to explore and celebrate the real stuff of life. Including essays, probing questions, and a directory of examples of what makes life worth living, The Best Things in Life Aren’t Things focuses on the intangibles that often bring us the greatest fulfillment but are often overlooked.
Expanding on what people everywhere universally know to be true, and with a newly refreshed cover that makes it an attractive gift book, Davis’ bite sized text encourages readers to pause and be reminded that the best things in life aren’t things; and are often right in front of us.
