Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Amazon review:
"While reading this book I kept asking myself "is this me? Does Linda know my past? How can she know so much about me?" What was written in this book, led to my further enlightenment. I've often wondered why I do the things I do. After reading this book, I now know. Despite the fact that my father was an alcoholic, I still wanted to grow up to be just like him. He was my idol. I often wondered why. I now understand my family dynamics. I now understand why I'm ultra responsible, why I joined the Army at 18, why I've always worked in male dominated environments, why I've always considered what men do, more important than what women do. The way we are raised and the things we learn in the home stick with us forever and shape the way we are to become.
Thank you Linda for this understanding. I feel like I know you. I appreciate your honestly about yourself and your family. None of us are perfect, are we? The sooner we realize that, the better off we'll all be.
If you are struggling or thinking hard on childhood issues, or how you can let it all go, and just be happy, I highly recommend this book." Reviewed by Sue
How seriously are we taking our constitutional, inalienable rights these days? There is certainly plenty of focus on power, money and success. But where will that get you if in the end you fail to achieve the ultimate right - happiness? Time to get back on track and aim for what really matters - happiness. In SUPERMOM: The Lost Child we explore how, as children growing up in dysfunctional families, we got off track and lost the most precious aspect of ourselves - our inner child. And how that loss impacted our overall happiness.
Since, as we all know, there is nothing new under the sun, neither is there anything new in this book. So why bother to read it, you might ask yourself? The only major and very important difference is that this book is approached from the perspective of the layperson - not the book learned professionals who preach what theories they learned in books and schools. Nor does this book come to you from the loftiest of the lofty spiritual gurus. In SUPERMOM: The Lost Child you will find the wisdom of a Jane Q. Citizen. An ordinary woman who merely seized every possible opportunity to pursue happiness and actually did it!
There are many roads to nirvana. Unfortunately specific disciplines, religions, philosophies, psychological theories, organizations, etc., are inclined to push their own good ideas as the "way." But let's face it. A cake made out of nothing but flour would be a pretty major failure. And a pursuit of happiness conjured up from only a finite number of possibilities would also prove to be a major disappointment in accomplishing that important ultimate goal - happiness.
In keeping with what we hear will be the theme of the coming human cycle (beginning December 2012 and continuing on for the following 26,000 years), this book will approach the pursuit of happiness from the perspective of expanded consciousness - the inclusion of multiple approaches to finally achieving true happiness.
This is not one more "way" but a recipe of many possibilities that could lead to living a happier, more peaceful life.
