Gift from the Sea by Anne Morrow Lindbergh, 133 pages

This is a little philosophy book written by Anne Morrow Lindbergh in 1955.  Each of the chapters is titled for a different shell and she uses that shell to muse about different stages and times in a marriage and a woman's life.

Anne Morrow Lindbergh (yes, the wife of the aviator Charles) may have written this book in 1955 but I had no problem applying it to my life in 2015.  What a beautiful book.  The only thing that would have made it better would have been to read it while I was at the ocean.

This is one of those books that I could read over and over again and I'm going to go out on a limb and say one of these days I will read it at the ocean and that will be bliss.
