    This book is making me want to go get a job at Starbucks. I think as we get older many people begin to realize that surrounding ourselves with good people and learning to appreciate the basic things in life can bring more happiness than a high profile career and lots of money. There is something to be said for just really loving your job and enjoying going to work everyday. Also being able to find the good in the things around us instead of always dwelling on the bad. Furthermore, our jobs do not define us as people, it's our character that does that.
