I have long said perception is reality. Each person has their own reality because they have their own perceptions. This book captured the essence of soul searching. Karam gives a fresh and easy to follow guide for making your life positive. Life and emotions are complicated and we can choose to let them rule us or we can take control and master them. Jumping on Water is a fabulous guide to teach you to become a master of your own journey. Karam will teach you how to take every experience, whether good or bad and find the positive in it by focusing on Who You Are, Why You Are here, What You Want, What’s Holding You Back and How To Wake Your Power Within. This isn’t just another self-help book, it’s a way to truly be alive. Five out of five stars.
Cat lovers will rush to pick up this book about the endearing Oscar, who is known to comfort dying patients in their final hours. However, only a small part of the book is about Oscar. The real focus of the book is dementia and the experiences of the patients and families affected by it. I have to be honest and say that I originally wanted to read the story of this wonderful animal. But having watched my grandmother go thru this horrible disease, I was deeply moved by the stories of the lives Oscar and Dr. Dosa touch. If you know someone who has a loved one suffering through this, buy them this book. It has valuable insight that will help them cope. Five out of five stars.
Jumping on Water sounds like a book we all need to help keep us positive.
ReplyDeleteI've seen Making Rounds with Oscars and wondered about it. Thanks for the review, now I'll check it out.

Think Oscar will get his own movie like Marley?
ReplyDeleteMason- They are both great books. I'm waiting for someone to come out with a wallet card/mini-book like Jumping on Water. Something we could keep with us when we need that extra encouragement.
ReplyDeleteAlex- who knows they may already have it in the works.
Jumping on Water - great title - great concept! Sounds like an awesome book :)
ReplyDeletesounds like a great book. I can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteJumping on water has potential. I need to do a better job of looking for the positivie in situations, or even when there is no situation. One needs to be aware of their surroundings, recognize what's going on, properly interpret it, and learn how to use it and help others.
