It would be easy to say And Then I Met Margaret is an inspirational journey of one man’s life, it would also be immeasurably unfair. And Then I Met Margaret is not only an Inspirational narrative of Rob White’s life on the outside but rather a narrative of every man and woman’s life and their choices regardless the stage of life they are currently in. This book gives no RSVP to anyone’s pity party nor does it cater to the buffet of inner doubt we each hold within. Through recalling his own unintended Guru’s life lessons and decision’s the author question’s your choices and belief’s while daring to challenge the reader to look beyond the preverbal “bedrock” that frames their life. This is not a “self-help” book and it is not a cure for all the wrong in your life, it is a chance to look at common things and question them.

And Then I Met Margaret has places, events and people that are unique to Rob White but within a few chapters you can start seeing where the same lesson’s his gurus taught him, and he taught those around him, have merit in your life as well. The smooth narrative style gives a melodic flow and transition into each new lesson the author experiences. In the beginning, the experiences seem like simple teachings with a simple answer but quickly the reader will become aware why that simply isn’t enough.
