What a lovely story! I have to admit that I did the 50 page test (from "The Art of Reading" lecture from The Teaching Company), and I wasn't really engrossed after 50 pages. I think it really grabbed me at 100, but that may have been because I was uber-busy and couldn't really stop long enough to really read. Getting a cold really helped me settle in and truly enjoy this wonderful gem of a book.
This is the last quote of the book, but it is my favorite:
"The truth about it is, whether we is rich or poor or somethin in between, this earth ain't no final restin place. So, in a way, we is all homeless -- just workin our way toward home." Denver Moore
AMEN!
"What makes the desert beautiful is that somewhere it hides a well" (The Little Prince by de Saint-Exupéry). My journey to a WELL-adjusted heart, WELL-watered soul, WELL-educated mind, and WELL-tuned body. "Love the Lord your God with all your HEART, and with all your SOUL, and with all your MIND, and with all your STRENGTH" (Mark 12:30-31).
