Description

What if we could change our lives by Choosing Pearls?
An oyster can transform an irritant into an iridescent pearl. How awesome!
What if we could do the same in our own lives? What if we could take the debris-the hardships we endure-and alter them into precious gems?
If you're in need of a fresh perspective, feel overwhelmed or underwhelmed and don't want your life to unravel...Choosing Pearls was written for you. In it, Margaret Elizabeth, unpacks inspirational stories from her life, her family, and a few familiar people, to illustrate how the pearl analogy has helped form meaning from memories. Part autobiographical, part energizing and fully magical, this memoir is entirely entertaining as Margaret shares her adventures, misadventures, heartaches and hopes.
Weaving 26 personal anecdotes-authentic pearls-onto a thread of real silk, we experience how she chooses to use every letter of the alphabet (A-Z) to layer her life in these stories.
Dance and celebrate along this shiny pearl pathway to share her encounters with relatives and friends, as well as America's Got Talent, The Backstreet Boys, Barack Obama, Margaret Atwood, Margaret Trudeau, Oprah Winfrey, Tammy Faye Bakker, and a variety of other polished pearls.
Most importantly, Margaret's memoir offers the invitation and opportunity to actually examine your own personal story-your name and your calling-in a new and profoundly positive light. After all, WE get to choose which pearl our lives will resemble: the artificial or the authentic one.
