"And I realize what I’ve always known—that family isn’t really about blood and having the same last name. It’s made by the people who love you. Who worries about you and champions you? Who takes one look at you and knows when you need a talk over that nourishing tea."
Loved this book! It had quotes and it really inspires me to read this one. So I gave it 5 stars and the author of this book (Lynda Mullaly Hunt) also set an anagram. For example, the word listen is an anagram of the word silent—they have the same letters placed in different orders. Here is one more anagram from the book: SHOUTING AT THE RAIN becomes: THAT NOURISHING TEA. I hope you like to read this one!
Like the author said: This book is about how authentic connections improve us and heal us. Being vulnerable—sharing personal things about yourself—is a good thing, because it creates connections by creating trust. However, as Grammy tells us, be careful with whom you’re vulnerable. Spend time with people who buoy you and protect you and want the best for you. Who’ll be honest with you, but also be kind. Relationships should make you happy, not leave you wondering. Like Delsie, learn to speak up for yourself. You deserve that.
