A Black Eye Isn't the End of the World: The Panda Priciples: Simple Thoughts for a Better Life
From time to time we all need to examine our lives and realize everything is not always black and white. But, like a panda, our outlook on life can get a bit fuzzy at times. Ray Strobel's panda philosophies are just the thing to help bring life back into focus.
In Ray Strobel's gift book A Black Eye Isn't the End of the World , photos of adorable pandas illustrate uplifting messages about basic life principles.
The charming animals provide a cuddly, warm perspective on handling painful setbacks ("When life knocks you down, nap"), establishing camaraderie ("Share more than small stuff"), maintaining friendships ("Don't hog the log"), and managing everyday stress ("When panic threatens, go for a stroll").
Some more examples of the panda
* "When you cuddle, cuddle with conviction."
* "Frolic while you're still frolicable."
* "Look at life sideways."
* "Tickle, don't scratch."
A Black Eye Isn't the End of the World is an ideal gift for anyone who needs a quick and thoughtful pick-me-up.

This is the best collection of quotes (and panda pictures) I have ever encountered. It helps me out a lot when I'm feeling down. I purchased it in a book store in Seattle that had cats. Finding this book only added to the wonders of my trip to Seattle. Thank you Ray Strobel.

I love this book, and my copy especially. On page 25 where it says So save your longing for what really matters: love, contentment, wisdom, happiness——one of my co-workers added and Colorado! Because I moved away from my beautiful state and have been heartsick since that day I crossed the border into Kansas. So she added that for me in her beautiful handwriting.
