Book excerpt: Good stories have an unusual power to guide people through life. They can be roadmaps to the unknown, signposts to inner peace, and are often turned to in times of trouble and retold to children, friends, and family to help get through life's rough patches. Featuring contributions from Robert Fulghum, Paulo Coelho, Sylvia Boorstein, Caroline Myss, Dave Barry, and M. Scott Peck among others, this collection of inspiring stories offers solace, provides guidance, and illuminates pathways to change, exploring the human condition and illustrating through anecdotes how people have found joy in life. The stories share human foibles and help readers accept and avoid them, pointing them toward a greater sense of tranquility and happiness.
