the book was chosen to be a quick read during the busy holiday season, and to focus us on what's important. anne lamott's help thanks wow categorizes prayer.
here are my top 5 from book group:
5. you don't have to read the book to go. you don't even have to know the title to attend and enjoy.
4. the author is completely non-denominational. prayer is universal.
3. the range of topics during the meeting, from commercials to our children's summer schedules
2. learning about other compelling books members are reading
1. a quote from the book:
The great Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore wrote, "I slept and dreamt that life was joy. / I
awoke and saw that life was service. / I acted and behold, service was joy."
peace!
This is such a beautiful post, Noreen. I'm (this will sound SO weird) struggling with an invitation I've received to a book group and need to decide how to handle it. You make it sound good and right and lovely, and oh, how I wish it were so! XO
