It is the only John Maxwell book I've read, but I would like to read more of his books.<br /><br />It is really hard to feel rejected no matter the circumstances. Life is about choices, even though at times it can be very hard to choose to "fail forward'!<br /><br />I'm a big Winnie the Pooh fan.

I have been thinking of you as you journey into your new unknown and I can't wait to hear/read how things continue to develop. <br /><br />I'm happy (selfishly) that you're back to a little more blogging regularity. :) It's your final week!KimBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01412282091553205454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-85101700732341782292012-04-30T07:25:22.350-04:002012-04-30T07:25:22.350-04:00Carrie, this is great.

Sometimes, things have to percolate for a long time.<br /><br />I'm going to go add those Maxwell books to my reading list :)<br /><br />And I love how you worked Fred & Ginger in here!Anne @ Modern Mrs Darcyhttp://modernmrsdarcy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4899893125552679366.post-37302535446225524572010-05-16T11:07:58.872-04:002010-05-16T11:07:58.872-04:00Loved this.

Perhaps that happens often with 'book reveiws,' but not to me :-) You certainly presented this with a brilliant and beautiful spin.<br /><br />The kind of friendship you speak of is so endearing and touching. What a gift to have such friends in your lives, to encourage and uphold. And you have proven to be such a friend as well..spoken as thankful receipient of your grace and love. And like your mom, I can't imagine ever turning YOU away!! <br /><br />Well, we have "Failing Forward" on the bookshelf--unfortunately unread. But, now, not for long. Thank you!<br /><br />And a little PS...I wrote a post about Eeyore a year ago that may encourage you :-) <br /><br />http://absolutegrace.wordpress.com/2009/03/16/faith-floats/<br /><br />Blessings!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
