Summary:
I wanted to review this book as I was intrigued by the title
and had never heard the term “bucketfilling” used this way and was curious to
read what exactly the author meant. I was pleased that the introduction to the
short stories in the book answered my questions.
A bucketfiller is a person who lives his or her life with a
warm and caring heart. He or she may say or do nice things for other person. A bucket
dipper is the opposite. The person may be rude, self-centered or in a
frequently in a bad mood.
I found myself engrossed in each and every story wonder how
the characters were going to be bucketfillers and not bucket dippers and how
each story would end. Another great idea in this book at the “Let’s talk about
it” questions at the end of each short story. They are thought provoking and
really help the reader to absorb the story and the lessons that can be learned.
In addition, I found myself constantly thinking about whether I was being
a bucketfiller or bucket dipper in many situations after reading this book. It
made me more conscience of my words and actions towards other people. There was
an incident with my ex-husband that came up after reading these stories and I
will admit that prior to reading this book I would have been a bucket dipper in
this situation, however; I made the choice to be a bucketfiller. It made me
feel good about myself and I think it even surprised him.
I love this book because being a bucketfiller is wonderful!
The stories are encouraging and inspiring and there is a lot that you can learn
and take from this book and apply to your everyday life. I think that anyone
that reads this book and takes to heart the message and concept of the book
will feel happier and rejuvenated.
