Review
Connie E. Sokol's Life Is Too Short Collection has something for every woman. I found myself being happy when I couldn't relate to some of the aspects she addressed, but there were other sections that I definitely connected with. I liked that each section was fairly short and to the point, and written in a straightforward way.
Most of the topics/ideas presented weren't new to me, but were good reminders. It helps every now and then to step back and look at where we have our focus-because often it is stuck on things that aren't the most important.
Out of all of the ideas I highlighted, I thought this was one of the best reminders:
"Remember that the most joyful and beautiful moments often come in the thick of stress."
