'My Beautiful Flower'

Jean Murray has written an inspirational memoir about life with depression and her daughter's learning difficulties. 'My Beautiful Flower' is both uplifting and somber at the same time. What most distinguishes this book, however, is Jean's affection for her daughter. The reader will recognizes that people with disabilities have the same human desires and needs as the rest of us do - like respect, shelter, education, love etc. No matter how strong our personality is, it is inevitable to feel down. But depression can ruin your life by making you less productive and withdrawn. We should all read books on personality development and coping with depression while we still have the time to read. I heartily thank Jean for allowing me a glimpse into her life :)
