Enduring Women's Book Club March 10, 2011

Enduring and empowering women will read books that will continue to uplift us and bring one another forth as we share personal stories.

Women are able to tap into one of the most important traits resilient people share. They don't see themselves as victims whose fate is in the hands of others. It's easy to blame other people for your problems and wait until they fix them but then you never get to rise to the occasion and witness your own strength.

MARCH BOOK SELECTION: "For One More Day" by Mitch Albom

This is the story of Charley, a child of divorce who is always forced to choose between his mother and his father. One fateful weekend, he leaves his mother to secretly be with his father - and she dies while he is gone. This haunts him for years. Somewhere between this world and the next, he encounters his mother again, in their hometown, and gets to spend one last day with her - the day he missed and always wished he'd had. He asks the questions many of us yearn to ask, the questions we never ask while our parents are alive. By the end of this magical day, Charley discovers how little he really knew about his mother, the secret of how her love saved their family, and how deeply he wants the second chance to save his own.

After you read this book, you will understand the stength women have to make the best out of any situation and there is no love like that of a mother's.
