“‘Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness’ seem to be beyond the grasp of many people. While most have the goal of living a safe and secure life in which they can pursue happiness, many people find that there are obstacles or hurdles in their way,” writes Dr. Vandett. “These hurdles become barriers to the pursuit of happiness causing many to sink into the morass of helplessness, hopelessness, and depression.
“When I was a high school teacher, I found myself talking to and counseling many young people on how to face some of life’s difficulties. I often used analogies to help my students understand the points I was trying to make, and I have put some of those analogies along with my thoughts on how best to face and overcome the hurdles in the following pages.”
Published by Hawes & Jenkins Publishing, Dr. Ric Vandett’s poignant tale shares what the author believes is a commonsense approach to facing life’s difficulties. Through sharing his thoughts and writings, Dr. Vandett hopes to encourage readers, and provide something that will help them in the pursuit of happiness.
