Book excerpt: "Have You Ever Felt That No One Understands You? Have You Ever Wanted To Stop The Pain In Your Heart And Wished That The Hurt Would Just Dissipate?"Discover Ways To Cope With The Downturns in Your LifeDear Reader, You have come to the right place. This book was written for you. It was written with you in mind, with the hopes of easing your pain by letting you feel less alone in dealing with the troubles in life. Through little insights, the book shows us how to live fully in every moment and how to be successful without compromise- the deep soul searching for harmony and happiness we all can achieve.Instead of chapters, this book is made up of 30 petals, as a metaphor for the exquisitely beautiful and ephemeral nature of life, each dealing with a commonly undiscussed dilemma in life. Like the cherry blossom, this book will bestow on its readers the license to hope, the courage to dream again and perhaps the optimism to look toward a brighter future. Each petal tells a simple story of an experience or life event - struggles of people just like you and me. More importantly, these blossoms serve as a reminder that life is transient and all problems are impermanent.Packed With Real Life StoriesThese issues are closely guarded dark secrets, little-known to even family and friends. Many people suffer alone, desperately struggling for years while keeping their secrets hidden for fear of humiliation, rejection and being ostracized by society.The author uses light humor to help readers identify and courageously deal with such issues within themselves, as well as in their relationships with others. By reading this book, you will feel less alone in coping with your problems and daily stressors. You will be able to pursue your passion in life, find your own happiness and perhaps someday learn to smile again."The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved." - Mother Theresa
