Summary "Encouragement is never something to keep to ourselves. Somewhere in the midst of online arguments and crazy politics and the ups and downs of life, we've become blind to the gifts that are all around us: kindness, love, and joy. We've forgotten how to be decent human beings. We've lost the art of looking on the bright side. Melanie Shankle's stories and life lessons offer a hilarious reminder of down-home decency and heaven-sent grace that we can't let each other forget. In a world that asks us if we're Instagram-worthy, we need to remember we're worthy of so much more. We'll love better, feel richer, and laugh more- even when life is not what we expected- when we choose to live out our true selves... on the bright side."--book jacket
