You Matter More Than You Think: What A Woman Needs to Know about the Difference She Makes

About this book

Am I making a difference? Does my life matter? How can I make a difference when some days I cant even find my keys? asks award-winning author Leslie Parrott. Ive never been accused of being methodical orderly or linear. So when it came to considering my years on this planet I did so without a sharpened pencil and a pad of paper. Instead I walked along Discovery Beach just a few minutes from our home in Seattle. Strange though. All I seemed to ever bring home from my walks on the beach were little pieces of sea glass. Finding these random pieces eventually became a fixation. And strangely with each piece I collected I felt a sense of calm. What could this mean? What was I to discover from this unintentional collection? In this poignant and vulnerable book Leslie shows you how each hodgepodge piece of your life no matter how haphazard represents a part of what you do and who you are. While on the surface none of these pieces may seem to make a terribly dramatic impact Leslie will show you how they are your life and how when they are collected into a jar---a loving human heart---they become a treasure.
