[Cristiano Bellucci]

Thank you very much for your review. It is an interesting book ranging in several topics, all that matter.

[Caterine Potes Morales]

I'm fascinated by the author's use of historical and philosophical reflections to impart wisdom about empathy, kindness, and fair treatment. The emphasis on gratitude and finding happiness in what we have rather than material possessions is a message that resonates deeply with me. It's commendable that the book is inclusive of various religious perspectives and offers valuable insights regardless of one's beliefs.

The vignettes serve as a backdrop for stimulating discussions on a number of topics. Although the events are set in the past, they are nonetheless relevant to contemporary issues.

Mark Gumbrell's book Enlightenment for the Things That Really Matter addresses a topic that is extremely relevant in the modern world, where individuals lead incredibly superficial lives and place little importance on their emotions and sentiments. I've added it to my TBR. Congratulations on BOTD.

Congrats on BOTD!
The book primarily tells historical and religious tales. It also says to treat everyone with love and empathy because everyone has feelings. Mark Gumbrell's assertion that "the world has to be a better and more enjoyable place for everyone to live" truly strikes a chord with readers.

Life is a hard thing. We don't know what will happen and when it will. But we sure can learn from facts and other incidents. These incidents help us bring good in our life as well as others and keep an open and positive mind.

[Moisés Alcántara Ayre]

A book as this one that address themes of empathy, fairness, and kindness appeals to me so greatly. What catches my attention is the author's proposal to offer care, love, and kindness to all beings, not just human beings. I'm so looking forward to reading the whole book and figure out this novel proposal of love and care for everyone/everything.

The author used his family history and philosophical reflection to portray and advise his readers that it is not only normal human beings who deserve care, happiness, and kindness rather any sentient being who has feelings both normal and abnormal deserves to be shown kindness and empathy and by doing so the world will be a better and enjoyable place for all to live.

"Enlightenment for the Things That Really Matter" by Mark Gumbrel is a thought-provoking novel with religious, historical, and philosophical stories showing readers how to have a happy, meaningful, and fulfilled life. There are things that we focus on, but they aren't worthy in reality. Congratulations on BOTD!

[Loice Akello]

Well, things that really matter to any living human being forms the focal point of their lives. " Where our treasures are so does our hearts be" this a scriptural perspective. People should therefore choose with great care what matters to them because this directly impact their lives. Thank you for your review.

[Victory Ositaorah]

I would love to know how to live and lead a fulfilled life and I love that the author incorporated historical, religious, and philosophical stories to help enlighten readers.

[Mole128]

The book is based on historical, religious, and philosophical stories that the author used to open his reader's eyes to how to live a fulfilled life. There are things that we hold so dear in life which are not supposed to be. The issue of couples wanting to have more children thinking that the more children you have the more joy and fulfilled life you have.

[DUNCAN TSHEPANG MATHEBULA]

I love that the author used his family history and philosophical reflection to portray and advise his readers that it is not only normal human beings who deserve care, happiness, and kindness rather any sentient being who has feelings both normal and abnormal deserves to be shown kindness and empathy and by doing so the world will be a better and enjoyable place for all to live.

The author's references include conflicting views on God, and I will give this book a pass. Thank you for the review.
