Embrace the Possible
The Choice: Embrace the Possible by Dr. Edith Eger is a life-changing book. After reading this book, my first thought was, what do I have to complain about, ever? Dr. Eger is a survivor of the Auschwitz Concentration camp. Also known as Hell on Earth.
This book is not all about her time at the camp but more focused on recovery. She intersperses stories of her patients she counsels as part of her journey. The stories are impactful and cause the reader to get involved. Look for themselves in each of her stories and evaluate if they need to heal.
Dr. Eger never asks people to feel sorry for her. She never seems filled with hate towards her captors. When she returns to Auschwitz, the reader walks with her as she processes all she went through.
My takeaway from the book? If she can overcome being in ‘hell’ for over a year in her life, what’s my excuse?
