Book Review: I Thought There Was A Road There.

By: Dabblingmum - [entertainment]
I Thought There Was A Road There " during a very stressful, chaotic, and scary time in my life. My husband lost his job and wondering how we were going to make it on a day to day basis had me feeling overwhelmed. I found this book to be very calming.

Assimacopoulos' stories are like medicine for the soul. Assimacopoulos writes of everyday tasks that we often take for granted, and reminds us how powerful our lives can be, in our simplicity.

We all go through moments, days, weeks, and even months when we feel as though nothing we do matters in this world; as thought we are living in a vacuum that just sucks the life out of us. Reading Assimacopoulos' stories and final thoughts about how those simple days apply to the greater and grander scheme of things seems to put everything into perspective.

Assimacopoulos reminds us that every single part of our lives can be used for the greater good, no matter how unimportant we may think they are. Her book is filled with memories that have us laughing, crying, and feeling comforted.

Life is meant to be lived and cherished despite the curve balls that are often thrown our way. We are to rejoice in the simple pleasures of life, find our own way to reach out and touch the lives of others, and to remember that no matter where our paths take us God will always be at the forefront of our lives, waiting with open arms to comfort us, to give us strength, or simply share in the joys that life presents us.

"I Thought There Was A Road There " is as heart-warming, comforting, and calming as sipping a cup of hot cocoa, nestled under warm blankets, on a rainy day.
