ABC of Friendship

series of Chicken Soup for the Soul

I sincerely love reading Chicken Soup for the Soul. No, it's not a recipe book but a motivational book that features inspirational stories of real life event experienced by people all over the world. FYI, I'm not into reading local newspaper because ours mostly featuring sad and horrible news, and as I turn towards the end of the newspaper, my rage grew and that makes my day turn gray. Therefore, I prefer reading newspaper at night not like others who read it in the morning. Anyway, Chicken Soup for the Soul make you more human, in other word, you become more considerate, understanding, thankful that you are fortunate when you feel that you have the most serious unsolved problems in the world and passionate about helping others. This book is highly recommended all over the world and perfect as gift if you have trouble deciding on what to give your loved ones as present.
