The 48-Hour Vacation: Native Thoughts Free online reading

Ever feel that you are on the mouse wheel of life? Work hard, put in 40 to 60 hours a week, depending on projects that you get assigned at work. Go home, watch the same two shows, and however the main characters or the plot goes is how well you enjoyed your night or your time off.

You may have a household of people all depending on you to get what they need and want. Sometimes life throws you curveballs, and now you feel waist deep in something that you would never wish on someone else.

You look on Facebook, and you see all the fun and excitement that others are having. You think, "Why can't I do that?"

Then doubt sets in, and you don't even bring it up to your spouse. Or perhaps you are single, and you think that you cannot afford it or that you don't have the time to do much more than go see a movie, or you may have just enough money to go out to a fine dining restaurant.

You could put a label on whatever response that you want (excuse, responsibilities, cop-out), but no matter what, just know that this book will teach you how to live life to the fullest, why you should, and to remove these labels from your head for the rest of your life.
