    Default What are you reading?

    I am currently on Irvin Yalom, Staring at the Sun. It is about death. Well really written about accepting death as a way to live your life.

    One part of the book sticks with me very firmly just now. If you were to have the same life over and over again - how would you feel about that?

    Oh nooooo - have said some of my friends - some have said "you think to much" thanks people - and others, very few, okay that would be fine.

    When I first read it I thought oh no, and then I though about it a bit more. One of my big problems in life is always wanting more - because I have a bloody good life, and a very easy life also.

    I feel that there is so much left, when there is only really this moment - that makes me want to make sure the people I care for know that I care and love them and also feel that.

    Just read all this over - if it makes any sense to anyone else great. But my use of the English language... and I studied English and Philosophy, it was a while ago.
    Why do I keep walking when driving is faster?

    Leslie: sounds like a bang up book - I think I will go to the nearest book store and order up a copy. It is my opinion that that type of thinking will keep you enjoying each moment as it comes along. Staying in the present moment - that's the key.
