A Little Guide to Happiness. For a grateful person, many new doors in life open: Those who are grateful live happier, more relaxed, and more enjoyably. The Bible invites us to be thankful in many places and even urges us to do so. In her new book, Valerie Lill presents a colorful bouquet of thoughts, stories, and impulses that invite a joyful life in gratitude. At the same time, this book is an excellent collection of materials to explore themes related to gratitude. Beautifully designed with many photos.
