I remember when GE sold the NBC radio station in San Francisco where I was morning news anchor, and we all lost our jobs. I had been completely tied to my business card, believing that’s who I was…and that’s ALL I was.
Then I found a book at the store.
It was in the children’s section, which seemed to be the natural area to gravitate to, since I was feeling small and unsure of my place in the world.
It was a picture book by Sandra Boynton, titled: YAY, YOU! Moving Out, Moving Up, Moving On.
As friends and family face upheavals in their jobs, relationships, or homes, this is what I recommend that they read…or better yet, what a loved one should read to them. It’s a simple reminder that they are a special gift to this world, just as they are, and that the world is full of possibilities for them to share their gift.
It is definitely a Good Book in Bad Times.
