(Proverbs 11:25) Be enthusiastic about the success of others. And if one member suffers, all the members suffer with it; or if one member is honored, all the members rejoice with it. (I Corinthians 12:26) Life's Little Instruction BookTM revolutionized book publishing when it was first published with "511 suggestions, observations, and reminders on how to live a happy and rewarding life." It remained on the New York Times bestseller list for two years, sold more than ten million copies, and was translated into thirty languages. H. Jackson Brown, Jr. and his wife, Rosemary, became convinced that one of the reasons for the enduring popularity of the three volumes of Life's Little Instruction BookTM was that many of its observations and reminders repeated in fresh, new language the timeless wisdom of the Bible. They searched the Scriptures and found biblical passages that corresponded to or complemented 300 entries in the three volumes of Life's Little Instruction BookTM. The combination of ancient wisdom with contemporary expression serves to instruct, inspire, and enlighten in a compelling way.

"No matter how hard you hug your money, it never hugs you back,"says one P.S. "Middle age is when you have two choices and you choosethe one that gets you home earlier, " says another.
