Strength for Your Soul

Ah, the end of the day is at hand. And like so many other days there was more to do than there was time in which to do it all. Tough day on the job?

Whatever challenges you faced today, no matter how many people have looked to you for support, now is your time to unwind. You don't need to worry about what's left undone-that's what tomorrow is for and it will be here soon enough.

Of course you can immediately turn out the light and drift off to sleep. But even though you're tired, you know you'll toss and turn and mull over the events of the day.

The television set stares blankly at you, inviting you to move from channel to channel to watch obscure sports that include a power saw, reruns, the same news cycle for the third time, and other late night fare. But is that really how you want to end your day?

Why not jump into these pages filled with humor, adventure, wisdom, and motivation? Do something that strengthens your soul. Now is your time after all.

Give a quick punch to fluff the pillow, adjust the light, take a deep breath, sip your water, smile and relax as you experience the humor and wonder awaiting you within the pages of Nightstand Reader for Men.
