Ripples of Joy: Stories of Hope and Encouragement to Share

Ripples of Joy: Stories of Hope and Encouragement to Share - Cheryl Kirking This was a life-changing book for me, so I thank my teacher and friend for lending this to me. Simply put, this is a collection of stories from people from all walks of life who, in their small ways, added a little more good in the world. It also incorporated inspirational quotes before every story. With my increasing disillusionment in life, these stories helped me see that there is still some good, and life isn't utterly hopeless.



One of my favorite quotes:


Do all the good you can.
By all the means you can.
In all the ways you can.
In all the places you can.
At all the times you can.
To all the people you can.
As long as ever you can.
-John Wesley



And maybe, just maybe, life will be better.
