And just how much of a humiliating, ridiculous, screw-up of a s**t-storm life did I need to lead before I could finally realise my dream?

One warm Arizona morning, Daisy Jenkins was talking with God during her daily walk and lamenting to Him about the negativity, vitriol, and hatred permeating US news media. Whatever happened to kindness and goodness? Jenkins wondered. Why didn't newspapers and TV broadcasts ever highlight stories of love and support, especially in the wake of the devastating COVID-19 pandemic? Instead, American society was being bombarded with reporting on the violence, mass shootings, political wrangling, and racial injustice that kept our country angry, mistrustful, and constantly on edge. "God," Jenkins said, "somebody needs to write more about the positive things happening in our world today." God's answer was immediate: "You're a writer. Why don't you write something positive and stop waiting for someone else to do it?" As soon as Jenkins heard this call to action, she got to work. This book features thirty amazing men, ranging in age from twenty-two to ninety-eight, with heartfelt and inspiring life stories to share. Their experiences may not be a cure-all for the troubles of this world, but they offer us precious liberation, even for a short while, from negativity. They remind us that when we look for goodness, we will find that it is still alive and well and that it's high time we shine a brighter light on it to reveal the truth that the more we see the goodness around us, the more we allow others to see it within us.
