"I've Been Thinking..." is sitting alongside Randy Pausch's "The Last Lecture".
I laughed, cried, smiled, and reflected and then I went to Amazon and bought "I've Been Thinking..." for all three of my girls (the last book I bought them all was the Last Lecture).
My 12 year old is almost done with it and I can tell she's getting something out of it. There are areas in this book that anyone with a pulse can relate to and I get a giggle every time my 26 year old calls me laughing and says "you SURE you didn't write this?". I'm always grateful to the people who take the time to write down my thoughts....LOL!

This was my first audio book and I really enjoyed it especially hearing Maria narrate it. I didn’t personally know of the book but saw it was recommended. I have now searched her out to follow her on social media and via her website. I want to keep in contact with her and what she has to say.

I loved this book. Found it by accident but once I started listening, I could not quit. For me it was helpful to be reminded that others experience similar chaos in life. It was helpful for me to be reminded to separate the chaos from what is important and to stay focused on what is important in life. This book was inspirational.

Thank you Maria Shriver for writing and sharing these lessons of life. I have really enjoyed this book and have now listen to it at least five or six times. Each time Learning something new. The lesson I cherish most is the one to ask God for what you need.
