Hello,

I thought this post would be on The Walk, and Miles to Go. Those books were amazing to me. I wished I had bought them instead of getting them from the library. I like to write my thoughts in my books but often don't because I am lazy. But I felt like these books had so much to offer to me. There were so many good quotes!  Here are a few that I thought were good enough to actually copy into another book.

 "Above all, do not lose your desire to walk. I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it."  -Kierkegaard

"There is a moment in all acts when there is no turning back. the step over the cliff, the finger committing to the trigger and the hammer falling, the bullet erupting from the chamber. Unstoppable..."

"The first causality of hitting rock bottom is vanity."

"I have found that the people who shout their opinion the loudest are usually the ones most insecure in their position."

"There is no problem so big that whining won't make it worse."

I felt like after I read these books I too wanted to walk around and meet people and learn about people lives and experiences. There are so many questions in our lives and so much that we can share that we don't because it isn't culturally appropriate. I find this so interesting. I am a very open person and I will probably share a lot of my thoughts while I share my books. I may even have posts that have nothing that have anything to do with posts as I get used to blogging.  I have always felt like looking at what type of books a person reads will tell you a lot of what type of person they are. And already you have a sample of mine. Thanks for sharing.

THank you for recommending "the walk." It's theme reminds me of "the alchemist," but not nearly so repetitive or ethereal. THanks for sharing your thoughts with us.
