Pomp and Circumstance

Graduation season is in full swing and with that comes the responsibility of choosing just the right gift for the person about to enter the "real world." Depending on how you look at it, the real world can be quite  a terrifying place and this is definitely not the easiest economy to be thrust into fresh out of college. Peter S. Temes' The Power of Purpose: Living Well by Doing Good "draws on the wisdom of great thinkers including Aristotle, Søren Kierkegaard, and Abraham Lincoln; the life lessons of great achievers ranging from Mother Teresa to Michael Jordan; and home truths he’s gathered from his parents, his grandparents, and his three children" to illustrate that "the clearest path to your own success and happiness lies in helping others get to where they want to go."
