Americans Saving Ourselves Together

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.  Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.”  ~Margaret Mead

This book is a collaborative project born from the desire to help our fellow citizens.  We know that times have been tough for many and we have decided to use the power of the written word to help uplift spirits and provide encouragement.  Offering new ideas, ways of thinking and perspectives, we are letting those going through difficult situations know that there are people who understand, care and are here to help. 

This book empowers and encourages the reader to regain inner strength and take action. Covering a wide variety of topics including family, prosperity, self-cultivation, health, parenting, joy and humor.  There is something here to help everyone during every stage of life.  Taking matters into our own hands has taken on a new meaning: responsibility.  When we accept responsibility for our lives and our circumstances, dramatic results are achieved! Although this book was written for Americans, we strongly emphasize that we are not solely American citizens, but global citizens. 

We are part of one family: the human race. When we lift ourselves higher, we have the ability to spread benevolence to those in need throughout the entire planet.  Individually, we each have the power and ability to change our lives.  Together, we have the power to change the world.
