Revised and back in print is a much-loved inspirational book which sold over 75,000 in its first edition, by the author of the nationally-syndicated column "Think on These Things". Hifler brings to her writing a natural spirituality that happily blends both her Christian and Cherokee backgrounds.
In this charming collection of brief essays, Hifler pays tribute to the simple blessings of daily life and shares the lessons she learned from those who nurtured her during her childhood in Cherokee County. In each small piece, she reflects upon a memory or incident from which she extracts fresh meaning. Planting beans, for instance, prompts a meditation on the unending story of creation.
