Something to Someone

I was first introduced to this book when I was going through my “quarter-life crisis”. I was nearing my 25th birthday and beginning to feel like I had become a failure. I hadn't really achieved any of the goals I had set for myself when I was 16 and was beginning to think I never would. A dear friend who I referred to as my “work dad” gave it to me so that I wouldn't feel so hopeless. I think I wore out the binding.

It's been awhile since I read it, but the basic message is that you mean something to someone and you are something to someone. It's something that I think we all forget from time to time: that no matter how unimportant or miniscule we might feel, there is someone out there who thinks the world of us.
