Well, this appears to be the typical book about being one with the universe. It's a great reminder that we need to look on the bright side of things. How can I learn from this situation or how does it make me a better person? How is this in my best interest?
(I read this one before some of the other's in my queue because my mother gave it to me and suggested I read it. Sometimes I get depressed, so it helps to remember to enjoy life.)

Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Other Poems by Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Well, sorry it's been so long since I last posted. With baby here and working full time I hardly have time to blog about much. Now that I've had a little time off work I've been able to do some reading....
My favorite quote from this book (which I purchased at a thrift shop for 50 cents):
" ... for Peace is nigh
Where Wisdom's voice has found a listening heart."
I think that is so true. Oftimes wisdom will speak peace to our hearts. So I think we need to keep our hearts open to wisdom's whispering. Hearts can so often make rash actions or words that will spark contention. There is prudence in the patient heart.
