Book Description   Are you a Power Seeker? Or are you a Seeker of Feelings? The Book of You by James Tolbert is a philosophical discussion of how you can control your own destiny by getting in touch with your feelings. It includes an alphabetical arrangement of words that can be used to help you reach within yourself and discover your authentic feelings, and not just the mask of emotions we all too often present to the world. This book is not only ''...about our existence; where we have been, and where we are going in our future as the human race...,'' but it is also a guidebook for you to help you find your direction in life. The Book of You is for you. You should read this not as a book, but as a guide. When you pick it up you can look for the word that you are dealing with at that point in your life or you can just open it and the page that you pick will be for you.

Day 30: a picture of yourself this day and 5 good things that happened since you started the challenge   Today is the last day of this challenge.  I know that it says to include a picture of myself this day.  However, I was up late last night and have ginormous bags under my eyes.  So instead of scaring you with those, I chose to forgo including a picture of myself. As for the five good things that have happened since starting this challenge.  That is a difficult one for me.  I have met some incredibly wonderful people through various blogs. I started taking liquid B12 and I have a lot more energy because of it. I have had an increase of followers which I absolutely love. I just got to spend a few days with my sister Brenda.  I don’t get to see her that often.  I really wished that the reason I got to see her was a better one, but at least I got to spend a few days with her. I got a new computer monitor.  My old one died.

Day 29: 3 Wishes   For my first wish, I would have to wish for good health.  When my health is bad, I can’t really enjoy anything else.  So I would just be wasting wishes if this wasn’t the first wish.  My second wish would be for money.  At first I was thinking the usual million dollars, but in today’s economy, I don’t think that would go to far.  So I would say my wish would be for an unlimited supply of money which I can use for anything. My last wish would be for love.  I know that I have the love of God and the love of my family and friends.  However, I am tired of not having a life partner.  I know that he will show up when I am ready for him, but sometimes it gets me sad to see so many other  people with someone in their lives. What would your three wishes be?

Book Description   Half-Fae Laird Duncan MacDougall is cursed. His nights are haunted by Otherworld creatures sent to kill him. The only way to stop them is to possess the magic bow currently in the hands of his enemy half brother, Kinnon MacClaren. In desperation, Duncan plans to take MacClaren's bride-to-be hostage and exchange her for the bow. Lady Alana Forbes has never met her intended, but she hopes he is handsome—and a good lover, for Alana is no innocent virgin. On her way to Castle Claren, Alana and her escorts are intercepted, and she is kidnapped by a man with extraordinary abilities—and every attribute she longs for in a mate. Duncan didn't expect the woman he thought of as a mere pawn to be so beautiful, and so arousing. Alana is drawn to him as well—but Duncan still needs the bow, and Alana is betrothed to another. How far will Alana go to save the life of the man she's come to love? Book Review   The description of the book leads you to believ

Day 28: Something that stresses you out   The first thing that comes to mind when I read this question is when my computer breaks on me.  For the most part, I can fix most issues with my computer.  However, there are those rare times when I have to bring it into my friend George’s shop.  I remember one time when my friend Jeff was still co-owner of the store with him and he had made a rather interesting comment.  Like I said, I can usually fix the computer myself.  Those times that I do have to bring it in is because something weird is going on that I can’t figure out.  Well, on one of those occasions, Jeff had said that he was going to send me over to his competitors because I always end up with the strangest things happening to my computer and he didn’t want the headache of trying to figure them out.  He thought that I would annoy his competitor enough and they would just go out of business. So what stresses you out?

But while it is always useful to have a second opinion (A sounding board? Someone else to blame?) it might also be worth bearing in
