At a time when values have lost their credibility in front of people and people are left without a guide in life, Stephanie Dowrick brings to the agenda the virtues that are almost as old as human history: Courage, Loyalty, Self-control, Generosity, Tolerance and Forgiveness. Pain, grief, hatred, jealousy, destruction and disappointment are not situations we experience alone; that we are not the only victims of disasters and evil hostilities; He states that there are aspects in all of these that mature and strengthen us, and that they can even be considered as opportunities to renew ourselves. It conveys, from the mouths of real people, the joys of living of people living at the edge of life, and the devastation of those whose lives turn into a nightmare because of the concerns, troubles and sadness of daily life, which are easily ignored because they are ordinary.
