Product Description
by Melynne Rust (Author)
Scrabbling to save a drowning armadillo her two Labradors had chased into the backyard pool, Melynne Rust came face to face with her resourceful and resilient nature. She had forgotten this part of herself existed. Ever since her husband of thirty-three years declared he wanted a divorce, moving forward with her life had felt insurmountable. But the armadillo encounter reminded her she had tackled a lot of hard things in her life-a chaotic birthing experience, brain surgery, estrangement from her parents-and she had survived them all. Perhaps she could channel the grit and determination of her younger selves to help her tackle this new hard thing?
So Melynne revisits the hard stories of her life to reunite with her gritty and determined younger selves, only to discover surprising threads of light that give new meaning to the story she is living now.
The Things That Saved Me will inspire you to notice gifts your younger selves want to offer you-beauty, goodness, strength, wisdom-and discover ways they can continue to breathe light into your current story.
