Note to Self

by Gayle King

What do Congressman John Lewis, Dr. Ruth, Kesha, and Kermit the Frog wish they could tell their younger selves? What about a gay NFL player or the most successful female race car driver? CBS This Morning co-host Gayle King shares some of the most memorable letters from the broadcast's popular segment of the same name. With essays from such varied figures as Oprah, Vice President Joe Biden, Chelsea Handler, and Maya Angelou, as well as poignant words from a Newtown father and a military widow, Note to Self is a reflection on the joys and challenges of growing up.

So many inspirational letters here - short and sweet for easy reading, or even to life the spirits on a difficult day. And such a variety of personalities, each with their own struggles, and their own successes. Yes, this would be a great graduation gift - but it would also be excellent for just about anyone. We all have tough times, and need reminders to keep on keeping on...and this does the trick is such a lovely way.
