HAPPINESS in HARD TIMES is my 5th Andrew Matthews book. Since my college days, I have been collecting his work: BEING HAPPY, FOLLOW YOUR HEART, MAKING FRIENDS, HAPPINESS NOW and then this. Andrew Matthews is one of those self-help gur
us
that I've always depended on especially when my life gets a bit harder
to handle. How many times did I think about ending my life when I was
still very young? Thanks to Andrew Matthews, I was able to overcome
every big and small hurdle that came my way and came out a happier,
better and more blessed me. I'd also like to think that his first book,
Being Happy, also saved my brother from committing suicide. Yeah... we
were a bunch of suicidal maniacs then.^_^
Happiness
in Hard Times resonates very well with a lot of people today,
especially since many have been and are still continuously beng affected
by the worldwide recession that has beset the global market for a few
years now. I, for one, did have a couple of lean months when I thought
that things won't be back to where it should be. Even before I got a
hold of his new book, I've already been practicing the principles I've
learned from his books before, and now that I have a copy of this, the
stories (not just by Andrew Matthews but by many of his readers and fans as well) are ever more so inspiring me to live a better and happier life no matter how hard life can get sometimes.
