An easy book to cite, but it’s typically forgotten in favor of the all-time classic movie.  It is definitely worth losing yourself in.

I did during my daughter Emily’s long cancer fight in the 1990s, and I became a huge fan of Scarlett’s ability to compartmentalize her worries from one day to the next. There were many days in that struggle when I said to myself, “Oh, I can’t worry about that anymore today or I’ll go crazy.  I’ll just think about that tomorrow.”

I recall just now because we're taking a mini-family vacation in the Atlanta area.
