Synopsis

I was standing in the kitchen when my 13 year old daughter came home from school. As she shared about her day she told of a friend whose mother had just given birth. The baby had Down’s Syndrome. My heart immediately went out to the family, and to my daughter's friend… for I too have a sibling with a cognitive disability. Dealing with that has been hardest on him, of course, but it also filled my life with unusual challenges. As we journeyed together, he helped me learn how life's purpose is not to be perfect, but powerful. And the most powerful thing about being human is the ability to love.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Hi, I'm Gail Tucker Whipple – writer, coach, teacher, mentor, and pastor who is passionate about creativity, kindness, courage and human potential. I care about it all so much that I earned a master's degree in transpersonal psychology (specializing in creativity and innovation), an ordination as a pastor, and a black belt in a martial art. Along the way, I produced an album of inspirational songs called Prayers from the Heartland, co-authored an online course on Parenting to Potential, and wrote both a poetry book called Rhymes With Spirit – and this little book called You Can't Make Yourself Perfect. I believe strongly that from our earliest days, learning self-love and self-care can make us more powerful beings. And the world needs us to grow up as powerful as possible, in order to take on the challenges facing the Creation. I have a soft spot in my heart for children, because I was one, have raised some, have taught more – and because twenty-years from now, they are in charge. I want them to know - as soon as they can hear or read - that they are perfect just the way they are. Hopefully knitting that message into their bones now may allow them to walk into adulthood and get things done for the greater good.
