Life is full of surprises. Not everything goes according to plan. So, what do you do when your desires are not fulfilled? In No Grapes in Grateful, Keith Thorn encourages readers to choose gratitude and resilience over resentment and bitterness. This book teaches you to face the disappointment and fear of unmet expectations head-on and strive onward toward the path of growth and gratitude. Good doesn't always show up the way you thought it would. Learn to detox yourself from disappointment. Don't hold grudges, build resilience from failure, keep your hopes alive even after close misses, never let an "almost" define your identity, recover from loss through faith, courage, and love, begin your healing journey without forgetting your past, transform your memories into wisdom, and much more.

We cannot let life's disappointments overwhelm our lives. No Grapes in Grateful is the perfect book to learn how to navigate these unexpected disappointments and continue to live grateful and meaningful lives that we find fulfilling. What I liked about this illuminating self-help guide is author Keith Thorn's clear and engaging explanations of each topic featured in the book. Much of what Thorn explores here are ideas that every person subconsciously already knows, yet most people struggle to practice in everyday life. By presenting these ideas and concepts in a single book that is not only accessible but also very easy to follow, the author makes this guide a must-read for anyone who feels a little overwhelmed in life. All in all, I think this is a very thoughtful and informative book, and I highly recommend it.
