LIFE. In just seconds it’s complicated, taxing, blissful and rewarding. After life’s bumpy ride…some everyday ladies are giving up the goods on their journey from heartache to happiness, without compromise.

Abstract:
Are you where you thought you’d be at this point in time? For those who silently answered no, your reasons why may be valid. But there’s a chance you’re inaccurately measuring your success by the lies often told by your own eyes. What looks like happiness isn’t always so. Everyone’s life consists of a series of choices that mount based on your response to each outcome. This book teaches you how to make the best choices and champion a positive response to unpredictable outcomes. All by divulging the successes and failures of real people…in stories told in their own words. It's funny...it's moving...it's intense.

  "That's My Girl!" , 06/21/2005
Reviewer: "Chikiki"
The stories were funny, and at times made me wonder "was that me?" at some point in my life. It made me think back on events that I thought would take me forever to get over, but now I realize they were just blinks in a lifetime ago. They also make you realize that just because someone appears to have it all together doesn't mean they aren't fighting off insecurities similar to mine. Pick it up! Read it! Judge for yourself.

  STILL STANDING says it all! , 07/11/2005
Reviewer: Dr. Robert Christin, Professor
The book includes thirteen women describing in detail some shocking, painful experiences in their lives. The stories are gripping, well written, and they pull you in - you want to read each one right now. But beyond the pain are dramatic stories of how they overcame pain and arrived at a new sense of self, became whole again. The stories provide most of all a true account of successes. The point is that any of us can have hope after reading what they went through and how they made it in the end. At the end of each story the narrator is STILL STANDING. The editor lets each women tell her own story, stay out of the way, does not try to edit or correct what they say, lets it all go on in their own words. A dramatic presentation by a professional who will be writing more good books in the future. Her name is Rae Pearson. We will hear more about her from now on.

This book is an awesome read, you will not want to put it down!!! Blessings to Rae for providing an opening for women to share, to heal and to be healed. Blessings to the women who found the strength to share their stories for the healing of their souls and hope for their sisters.
