Though SARK has empowered millions to live their creative dreams, manage their businesses, and savor personal connections, the deaths of her mother and cat and the end of a treasured relationship tested her ability to walk her talk. But asGlad No Matter What shows, she journeyed through the spirals and layers of grief and loss and emerged stronger and more whole. In this inspiring book, she shares the insights she found along the way -- practical strategies we can all use to cultivate profound, positive transformationthrough, rather than despite, life's inevitable travails.

"Glad No Matter What" is primarily a book about the type of loss and change that surrounds the death of a loved one, but I could apply some of it to the loss and change I am currently experiencing as I transition to my new home. SARK's unbridled enthusiasm and good nature bursts from every page, and it is difficult not to be cheered by her multicolored scrawls.
My favorite portion of her book was about her "emotional GPS" and how she notices negative thought patterns and reactions as she is having them, then tells herself "recalculating" as she finds a new "emotional route". I chuckled over this, and then gave it some thought. Sometimes I feel very guilty about my negative responses to things while feeling helpless to change them. But with the emotional GPS idea, I can recalculate negative reactions into less negative responses.
I admit to skimming over some parts that were simply too spiritual for my tastes, but I remain an admirer of SARK as a creative force and a positive influence in a cynical world. ( )
