Gift Shop of Gratitude

A Journal to Explore the Journey of Your Life

About this book

WRITE YOUR LEGACY
Visit a museum, a national park, a castle in Europe, or even the local zoo these days, and you'll likely be directed to "exit through the gift shop." A gift shop can be a metaphor for life. And that's how award-winning journalist Peter Lovenheim found the inspiration for this book as a gift shop of gratitude.Through the lens of twenty common gift shop souvenirs, you are prompted to recall and organize all the things in life you're most grate­ful for. Consider the snow globes and ball caps, the T-shirts, postcards, and jewelry—and let them bring to mind the people, places, and life experiences you hold most dear.After reading a chapter about the evolution of scented candles, what do you remember about the aroma of your mother's cooking? Do key chains prompt memories of a friend or mentor who opened important doors for you? Does a bobblehead recall a beloved teacher or athletic coach?This special book will surprise and delight you with the memo­ries it evokes. Then, by journaling your answers in the Gratitude Pages to these thought-provoking prompts, you'll create your own personal memory book.

  • Perfect gift for parents and grandparents to chronicle their family legacy
  • Evokes cherished memories that can be shared for generations
  • Become the co-author of this book about your own life
  • Create a treasured family heirloom for children, grandchildren, andthose you'll create your own personal memory book.
  • People with Kindle Scribe will find it easy to write their memories
