    About this ebook

    My senior year in high school our teacher asked us to write about the events we wanted to remember. She had a book called Daily Reminder. We thought it was a book with words of wisdom to help us in our daily life. We earned special credits in her class and she would award the book to the student who earned the most points. I was the winner! The book was three hundred and sixty-five blank pages to write our own life story. Thus, The Gift was written. The Gift is written to help people understand and hopefully find meaning in events that happen in daily life, whether good or bad.

      ONE of my lecturers told us we shouldn’t rely on hope to get us through difficult times because it creates a false sense of security. I got it but I just can’t accept the idea that life without hope is better. So many stories in this edition show why
