Something to Live By — Dorothea S. Kopplin
“This is a book of help and comfort for all ages…a simple, sincere and honest philosophy of living, gleaned from the world's finest inspirational writings.”
A book in the form of, essentially, a long letter of guidance and inspiration to help the children she believed she would soon leave, Something to Live By was born in Dorothea S. Kopplin's mind some 20 years ago prior to first publication of this book in 1945, when doctors told her she would not live long enough to be able to nurture her children as she would have wanted to.
With this book, she created an uplifting collection of beautiful poems and quotes, inspiring them to live a harmonious life. Mrs. Kopplin's writings tell us about her strong bonding with her children: her parenting was full of happiness, courage, fortitude, love, sorrow, family bonding, forgiveness and above all a deep understanding of human life. She had fathomed the depths of spirituality as well as deciphered that materialism is not the only way to happiness in life. She believed in the power of the Almighty not just through reading of the scriptures but by service to humanity.
In short, the book, apart from being educational, is inspiring and motivating.
