Keep it Simple and Sane (Barb Rogers) I skipped a lot of this, and just skimmed through since I felt I already do all these, but the author writes well hence had picked it up. While skimming, saw these two that capture the essence of the book and I agree wholeheartedly with both.

• If others can't see past your outsides, its because they are living with their own heaviness and limitations, and the best thing you can do is to leave them to their business and hope someday they will find some understanding.
• What does "free to be" mean? For me, it means living in the moment, exactly as Iam, doing the best that I can do, and always striving forward. It means accepting that Iam not perfect, I will never be perfect, but I don't have to be. Its about leaving other people, and a God of my understanding to their business and taking care of mine. It is not my job to change the world or anyone in it, but to live in the truth of who Iam, what I can, where and when I can, and leave the rest to a power greater than I.
