Some Things You Just Have to Live with: Musings on Middle Age

By Barbara Cawthorne Crafton

Book Overview

Barbara Crafton acknowledges the spilled milk of our lives-physical changes, empty nests, and more-but sees also the opportunities for new and energizing purpose, especially through a deeper relationship with God. Crafton is restrained about her faith, but nevertheless, it still infuses her every paragraph. - American Reporter

I am thoroughly enjoying this product. I highly recommend this author. I also received the product within a very short period of time.

Some Things You Just Have to Live With

Rev. Crafton is an extraordinary writer. She opens her soul and invites the reader to examine it. In the process her readers get new insights into their own souls. She helps her readers to understand that joys, fears, anxieties, hope, and all the aspects that make us human, are shared by others. We are not alone. While her topics are profound, her writing style is easy to read. As she writes of events in her life and how they've affected her, I found myself nodding and thinking "yes, I've felt that." In every story in this wonderful book I felt that I was reading about myself as much as about Rev. Crafton. This book is for anyone who is middle age, has passed middle age, or expects to ever be middle age. It is a book to be read again and again, as each reading provides comfort, reassurance, and an understanding that we are all in this life together and we're all human and that God's love is freely given to all of us.
