When I picked up this book I had no expectations whatsoever, I just wanted one I can just get into and be finished in a day or two. What I got from it was more than I expected. This book came at a perfect time in my life. It’s a comfort all on its own. It’s a warm cup of tea you drink to help keep you warm on a cold day. It’s a rainy Sunday staying in your bed all snuggled in and cozy, reading a good book. This book, while reading, gave me a lot of things to think of whether it’s about how my children should live their life, how I did with mine etc. if you’re looking for a book that will warm your heart look no further. This book will stay as one of my favorite ones that I’ll probably reread when I needed to. 
 Let me end with my favorite quote from this book
“A DAY WELL SPENT IS A LIFE WELL LIVED” sigh 🥰🥰🥰
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️-⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️  I’d give it 10 stars

A study of happiness and work from different perspectives. Perfect vacation read for those who need to reevaluate their current work situation and who need a step back from life's hectic routine. Loved it!

a loving and kind book, full of humans sorting through the sense and meaning making of being alive. (for me) it’s the novelization of jenny o’dell’s ‘how to do nothing’. a really beautiful meditation.
