Synopsis'I thought I'd found myself in a world that, in order for me to fit into it, I had to fold myself up and break myself down. But it's a tight squeeze in a box that's only good for hiding.', "I Decided to get it all down on paper-the chapters of my life I'd shelved and let collect dust for too long. At night, I'd come home and I would write and write-everything. As quickly as my pen could keep pace with my heart, trailing its way across the page ... I could sense that I was writing toward something. What, exactly, I wasn't sure. But there, among the scribbles and notes and my heart poured out, it was starting to read like a story-like my story. Right there, in the reliving of memories I'd pushed aside, in the unfolding of moments I'd forgotten, was the whole of my life. It was messy and winding and beautiful, and graciously revealed about a million wonders. Some of it broke my heart, and some of it pieced it back together. But every part, every note, every memory-whether joy or sorrow, happiness or hope-was bridge that led me to where I was meant to go. It spilled out onto every page, the truth I'd missed until I saw it written in my hand: my story holds the fullness of who I am. The version of me I've always meant to see." Book jacket., AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Imagine if all the worn-out, untrue, painful chapters of our lives started to quiet, and the beautiful, unique pieces of who we are were to rise. Imagine if the stories we tell brought us back to our true selves, back to one another. Imagine if they spoke of how we loved and lost and tried our best. How we saw it all, even the parts that hurt. Joanna Gaines' new book, The Stories We Tell , invites us on an authentic and deeply vulnerable journey into her story--and helps shine a light on the beauty of our own--guiding us to release the weights that hold us back so we may live and share our story in truth. We've all dropped anchor in places that suited us for a time: a city, a perspective, a lie we mistook as truth. This book is an invitation to a kind of life where you know how to hold what you believe--about yourself and the quiet worlds behind the people you pass--with gracious and open hands. To see your story as greater than any past or future thing, but for all the beauty and joy and hope it holds today. It's an invitation to take stock of the chapters you've lived--the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly--glean what's gold, and carry only that forward. Let it slow your feet and steady your life-in-motion so you can see where you stand today from a new point of view. No longer through weary or uncertain eyes, but a lens brimming with hope. ---------- "The only way to break free was to rewrite my story. Because something would happen every time my pen stopped: It was like my soul was coming back to my body. Like the deepest parts of me that got knocked around and drowned out by all the crap I let the world convince me about who I was came back to the surface. And what was left was only what was real and true. I was, finally, standing in the fullness of my story. I felt hopeful. I felt full. Our story may crack us open, but it also pieces us back together. We all have a story to tell. This happens to be mine--every chapter a window into who I am, the journey I'm on, and the season I'm in right now. Because this is my story, maybe you won't always relate, or maybe it will feel like you're looking in a mirror. Whatever we have in common and whatever differences lie between us, I only hope my story can help shine a light on the beauty of yours. That my own soul work will stir something of your own. And that by the time you get to the end of my story, you're also holding the beautiful beginnings of your own. A story only you can tell. And I hope that you will." -Joanna, AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Imagine if all the worn-out, untrue, painful chapters of our lives started to quiet, and the beautiful, unique pieces of who we are were to rise.

Joanna's story is completely relatable. Love her and her story!
I loved Joanna and Chip's HGTV show, and that's how I knew them. I loved their humor, they love for each other was apparent, and I love how different they are for each other, but their love and support for one another was apparent. I came across her book while traveling. I have 100+ book at home, and on my to read list, but when I saw her book, I knew I had to read it and I'm so glad I did. Joanna's story is completely relatable. Easy to appreciate, good flow throughout the story, and her story resonates with me. She has given me so much motivation to journal my thoughts. To release whatever fears I have and address, and to conquer fear by taking action. Love, love, love this book! Thank you, Joanna!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Neu
