Rating: Summary: Handbook for understanding our earth school lessons Review: I happened to come across this book sometime in 1993. Like a wiseman once said, you dont find books, rather books find you and so let me reframe my sentence and put it as "Why...found me in '93. At first I found the book almost incredible; I was even angry because it was challenging all my deeply rooted beliefs. But when I dared to pick it up for the second time I found the deepest wisdom in every single word. It was truly a healing experience. I have read this book countless number of times ever since and each time it touches me afresh! I recommend this book to anyone who feels a need to look beyond everyday life and it is a must for those who are looking for meaning in these repititive episodes of pain and joy that we happen to call- life.

Rating: Summary: Wonderful book to help understand the mysteries of life Review: I have read this book three times since 1995, when it was given to me by a friend after my son had passed away. And it is now my favorite book to give to those who are facing critical moments in their lives and who believe their "luck" has ran out. It has also enriched their spirits and helped them answer many questions regarding the mysteries of life. This is a MUST book for all who want to grow spiritually.
Rating: Summary: A book to re-read and treasure Review: I was astounded to read that this unique book is out of print. Norwood, author of "Women Who Love Too Much," takes a radically different turn here. She recounts her seven-year period of solitude, study and contemplation, and the result is a spiritual gift to readers. She touches on any number of personal crises that almost anyone can identify with and introduces some very thought-provoking theories of her own. A small book, densely packed with wisdom and sane perspective. I bought several copies to give to friends, but I'll never part with my own. This book, as the author herself advises, should be re-read over and over: each time, you gain a new perspective that make the book richer and richer. Try to find this book--it's worth the effort.
Rating: Summary: This book makes sense out of life events that make no sense. Review: I went to the library to look for spiritual books and this one almost fell into my lap. At the time I was experiencing some difficulites in my life and it helped me to sort them out and understand the true nature of God's higher calling. I would recommend it to anyone on their own journey.
Rating: Summary: A good book on anyone who wants to grow spiritually. Review: I went to the library to look for spiritual books and this one almost fell into my lap.

Rating: Summary: A Compassionate Guide for Life's Questions Review: Robin Norwood offers her readers clear compassionate insight into the many purposes of life on earth. The vignettes in this book open up a range of possibilities for rethinking any circumstance in your life. A death is seen as an agreement that has been made to fufill a karmic bond and when seen through this light, the circumstances can be viewed with a different understanding that perhaps allows more peace. A personality trait or skill that a person posesses may be the main issue the soul has chosen to work on in this life to evolve and expand. A relationship that causes great grief may be the perfect reflection of where we are wounded and helps to "wake us up." Life on earth is all about learning, evolving and expanding. There are no bad experiences when seen in this light, it is all perfect and always evolving. Every experience moves us into the next phase of our evolvement and if we can recognize where we are wounded by our experiences and move past the wound we can choose not to experience that circumstance again. A really beautiful, helpful and insightful book.

Rating: Summary: Why Me? Review: Robin Norwood's book, Why Me, Why This, Why Now? is exactly what I needed at this horrific time of my life. I am re-reading it for the fourth time and gaining new insights once again. She helps me to understand and put some meaning into life's trials. I plan to read it often, most specially when I feel discouraged. I recommend this book to anyone who is suffering.
Rating: Summary: A Handbook for Life Review: Since purchasing this book, when it was first released, I have re-read it at least once each year. Each time, it is as if I'm reading it the first time. The insight, it's given me, is extordinary in placing my life in its proper perspective.
