Make a Choice When You are at the Intersection of Happiness and Despair, Benedict

New York Times best-selling author Jeff Benedict has seen both good and bad in his career as a journalist. Some of the best are the extraordinary people he has met who have made deliberate choices to live happier lives despite the extreme hardship that each of them have faced. Although life will knock us down from time to time, this book is an important reminder that we all can make a choice to get back up, brush ourselves off, and keep pressing forward.

"Each of us will find ourselves at the intersection of Happiness and Despair. And when that day comes, there are choices we can make that will help us turn and walk down the street called Happiness," says the author.

From choosing to forgive to choosing to serve others to choosing to pray, the seven true stories that Jeff shares illustrate the power that comes when we choose happiness in the face of despair.
