What I Learned in My First Hundred Years: An Inspirational Memoir: Thriving Faithfully through Adversity - 5405

Nova Vaughn, the daughter of Texas pioneers, inadvertently lived a remarkable life, like her mother and mentor. Both were women of faith who lived life unafraid and expected others to step up to their responsibilities. Born in a small home on the vast prairies of the Panhandle of Texas, Nova barely survived a wreck that killed her beloved Papa. Her mama showed her how to exercise self-control and sacrifice feelings of self-pity, and even grief, for the greater good. With her six siblings, she discovered that with a positive attitude and hard work, they could do almost anything with almost nothing and have a good time doing it. She became a student at Texas Tech, a teacher, preacher's wife, businesswoman, landowner, social worker, contract manager, and finally, in retirement, a missionary. Even through betrayal, she found a way to get up and start putting one foot in front of the other. Her insights about her upbringing and later childrearing reveal that children are not pets, but real people who are going to have to make their own way in the real world. God's guiding hand and blessing are evident in her bold choices. She learned during her African trips that we are very wealthy and privileged in this country full of opportunity. You will enjoy the journey with her as she reveals how to be a little venturesome and enjoy your whole life!
