But like all humans on the planet, the good folks of Orange Beach have their share of problems - marriages teetering on the brink of divorce, young adults giving up on life, business people on the verge of bankruptcy, as well as the many other obstacles that life seems to dish out to the masses. Fortunately, when things look the darkest - a mysterious man named Jones has a miraculous way of showing up. An elderly man with white hair, of indiscriminate age and race, wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and leather flip flops carrying a battered old suitcase, Jones is a unique soul. Communicating what he calls "a little perspective," Jones explains that he has been given a gift of noticing things that others miss. "Your time on this earth is a gift to be used wisely," he says. "Don't squander your words or your thoughts. Consider even the simplest action you take, for your lives matter beyond measure…and they matter forever." Jones speaks to that part in everyone that is yearning to understand why things happen and what we can do about it. Like The Traveler's Gift, The Noticer is a unique narrative is a blend of fiction, allegory, and inspiration. Gifted storyteller Andy Andrews helps us see how becoming a "noticer" just might change a person's life forever. 6444479 28 4 2009 The Noticer: Sometimes, all a person needs is a little perspective. total:266|5:111|4:80|3:48|2:22|1:5| 266 1068 516 150 5 2 false false Sun Apr 26 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Apr 26 19:56:52 -0700 2009 Sun Apr 26 19:57:58 -0700 2009 1 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Nov 02 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 02 14:39:33 -0800 2009 Tue Nov 03 09:19:31 -0800 2009 1 more...]]> 5 0 false false Fri Sep 18 18:44:50 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 18 18:45:21 -0700 2009 explain, “you’ll find those needs increasing.
