Beth’s review of The Worst Is Over: What to Say When Every Moment Counts--Verbal First Aid to Calm, Relieve Pain, Promote Healing, and Save Lives > Likes and Comments

I found this book reassuring and scary at the same time. I put my copy in the Taoist Tai Chi library, and it was checked out from there quite a bit. I did this before I was informed about Dani.

I think about this book quite often. I think its philosophy guides me in some ways I am not consciously aware of.

I love the blender story. Once, in college, a friend's cigarette accidentally lit the postcards on her wall on fire. I remember just calmly looking at it while another friend quickly picked up a can of Diet Coke and flung it at the wall to put out the fire.

The book looks interesting too. I'll have to put it on my list.

Beth, Mary, Happyreader, and all,

Thank you for your comments. The blender story is a stunner.

Beth: Would you mind contacting me or allowing me to put it up on the Verbal First Aid website?
