Summary: Too Simple for My Taste But ... READ IT ANYWAY!
Comment: Short and sweet and a very, very easy read, this book is the kind of book that just makes you think "how nice". It is the kind of book that makes you feel good, the kind of book that, if your in a bit of a down mood or stuck in a rut, could be just what you need to re-energize your life.
If you are not an avid motivational or spiritual reader, only occasionaly reading material of this nature, this book is IDEAL. It has just enough content to make you think about your actions and your place in the scheme of things, without getting overly deep or philosophical. If everyone read this book and really thought about and made an effort to apply it's priciples, the world would be a really fabulous place.
I didn't rate the book 5 stars only because I prefer books with more content and insite and none of the ideas presented were new. It was just too simple for my taste... but hey... READ IT ANYWAY! It is definitely worth the very short investment of time it takes to do so!

Summary: Refresh Your Soul
Comment: I received the book as a present and really enjoyed reading it. I've never written about a book before, but I think this one deserves five stars. This fabulous book is packed with wonderful wisdom. The author shares a series of interesting life stories that are enjoyable and convey a deep truth about the human experience. His writing leaves you renewed and inspired, providing a new perspective about the events and people that shape our lives. The main elements are the ten Paradoxical Commandments themselves. They combine to form a positive message about life and the human spirit. This enriching message frees you to be yourself, and give the world the best you have. The Commandments are so powerful that for years they have circled the entire globe, continually passed from person to person. Now, the original author takes you on his path of discovery. I urge you to read this book; it will refresh your soul.

Summary: Not very realistic
Comment: This book unfortunately did not enlighten me at all! :( It is quite difficult to treat someone kindly when they continue to stab you in the back. Unfortunately we are living in a world where evil is progressing as each day passes. Just turn on the news and you will see that the principles in this book are hard to apply in life as we know today... I believe that you should treat others as you would like to be treated. Diplomacy is used in everyday situations but I believe in treating someone exactly how they treat you, like a mirror. If you are nice to someone and all they do is gossip about you and treat you like dirt, why should you just grin and bear it.. Things are only going to get worse because unfortunately people are becoming more selfish and ruthless. Sure, they are some good ones out there but it is hard to remember that when you are out in the road driving and you have people running stop signs or red lights or cutting in front of you. I think it is quite hard to just smile and wish that person a wonderful day...
