<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>What attitudes make the difference between failure and success?</p></b><p>In <em>Discovering Unexpected Gifts</em>, author Stephen Now gives us a way to illuminate life's experiences, through his reflections on loss, love, fear, rejection healing and acceptance.</p><p>Readers follow along as the author is transformed by challenging and joyful experiences, both "gifts" and explaining how to assign value to both the events. Some that are clearly blessings, as well as the ones that seem like obvious setbacks, Stephen demonstrates the idea that life experience need not be a series of successes or achievements to be beautiful.</p><p><em>Discovering Unexpected Gifts</em> points to something beyond ourselves as we begin to understand we play a part in bringing unexpected gifts to others. And in so doing find meaning, purpose and joy.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>This book is a gift. As the author leads us through his life's events identifying the gifts they brought and lessons learned, we can't help but be inspired to do the same with our own life."<br><b>--Cheryl Manriquez, Social Worker</b></p><p>"An honest, heartfelt and reflective memoir of a loving and compassionate therapist whose ability to bear witness without judgement and to impact and be impacted by the clients and individuals he meets along his life journey while teaching and learning life lessons in sometimes unexpected and messy ways. Just what the world needs in 2021!"<br><b>--Liana Montague, Child and family therapist</b></p><p>"With an engaging, immediate writing style, Stephen Now shows us a harmonious interplay between the twists and turns of his life path, and his capacity to find gratitude, personal growth, and humility around every corner. In taking this reflective journey with him, we in turn are offered the opportunity to reflect on our own lives through the same appreciative lens. Ultimately, what Stephen offers us is the opportunity to see that gifts arrive not just in the form of obvious gains, but through loss, hardship, and setback as well."<br><b>--Kerry Ragain, PhD</p></b><br>
