For anyone who has ever wondered, “Why me, Why this, Why bother, How come . . ? ” With Hurry Up Speed Up being the order of the day, many of us are wondering about the meaning of it all. These questions live within us as we search for ways to find peace and purpose. As part of that search, there is an increased need for relief, for refuge, for something! The “something” that can be discovered and learned within everyday life experiences. The book, All I Ever Wanted Was A Lot of Money And A Husband Instead I Got Enlightenment, by Catherine Lenard, provides that “something.” It’s an easy, journal-like, compellingly entertaining read which chronicles the ups and downs of an all-out search for happiness through money, career and relationship—subjects most can relate to! Universal wisdom through lessons learned, and “otherworldly” experiences that occurred throughout The Search, are included in each of twenty-seven illustrated mini-chapters. Through Lenard’s striking honesty and humor, which pokes fun at life experiences with a sincerity that earns her respect, readers can recognize, understand, and apply this wisdom for personal enlightenment regarding their own life’s events.
