Life Door is truly a life changing book for me. I really feel that my life has transformed and I know myself better after reading this book. The author has a way with words that make you stop and really think about yourself. The straightforwardness and humor sometimes made me think that the author was right inside my head pulling out words that I often wanted to say but couldn't.
Nancy Lynn says it like it is with no holding back, not only with basic issues of life but also worldly social issues. She has let no stone unturned. She actually makes me want to go out in the world and be a voice for changes to better the world. After all like Nancy Lynn says "Our assignment in life is to find our assignment." Simple yet so true. That is a great answer to the question (what am I here for-what is my purpose).
Many people ask (why did this happen to me?. Nancy has the answer to that and says "why not you?" When she writes about changing the way we teach in our schools, Nancy writes "What the HE double hockey sticks do you think we are all here for, if not to help each other and grow, learn and love."
Life Door is organized in such a way that each chapter seems to just flow into the next. If you don't understand something she writes, don't dispair, because if you read the next paragraph in the book, nine times out of ten it will state an issue in a way that makes you think that she wrote it just for you. She joins issues by using real life stories, quotations, other book references from noteable authors, and even lyrics to songs. If you still don"t get her point, she adds Bible quotations and affirmations. The light will go off in your head and you will have lots of AHA moments as I certainly did.
I have never really been an AWARE person but thanks to this book, I am more aware of everything. At the end of each chapter are blank journal pages for the reader to write. This was extremely helpful to me because issues that I needed to change in my life were fresh in my mind after reading each chapter, The journal pages were right there to write my feelings and affirmations down immediately. Nancy says the journal pages are there for you to pull your feelings out. "It's kind of like an agreement diary with self."
What I got out of this book is that positive,peaceful,loving living must start with each one of us. Make agreements with self and then we can go out and make agreements with others. She wrote a Peace Poem about war and peace issues. War what is it good for. Next line of course she puts a few lyrics to the song "War what is it good for,absolutely nothing." Then if you still DON'T GET IT, she will write a quotation about war,like "War says nothing about who is right, only who is left."
This is a must read for all ages as Nancy states. It is a book for everyone 13 years old to 100 plus young. It is the CLASS in school that isn't there. Where is the DOOR marked LIFE in our schools? There is no class DOOR marked LIFE in school. This book LIFE DOOR is the CLASS. It will make you think, act on those thoughts and bring your creativity, talents, and true self out in the open where it belongs. Not stiffled like society and powerful individuals want us to be. You be the POWER.

It's back to basics here as this author provides key reminders of how to simplify life and organize priorities for a happier life...something, I found, can get lost in day-to-day living.
