Makes me think.<br /><br />OOTP - that's the mark of a good book, if it can set you to thinking beyond your cherished beliefs by tapping your empathy<br /><br />Steven - layer up on layer upon layer.

It's the self-realization, the self-love that has to be there before you can believe someone else loves you. The dog in this book sort of upset that theory...Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14555472024981357622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11542365.post-87494005193771525702011-07-30T05:06:49.855-07:002011-07-30T05:06:49.855-07:00smiles. a beautiful realization...you are not alon...smiles. a beautiful realization...you are not alone and you are loved...wish everyone realised that...Brian Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722940075884718007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11542365.post-13525916017512691272011-07-30T05:04:17.945-07:002011-07-30T05:04:17.945-07:00It's funny J, what comes to mind when reading ...It's funny J, what comes to mind when reading someone else's words. Chords are struck, things are made clear. It was a passing moment but it was a real one. Thanks for the love from there :)<br /><br />Molly - the book was real, and the moment, though the story was fictional. It's called Sight Hound by Pam Houston and it's got some powerful insights told from a dog's point of Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14555472024981357622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11542365.post-58548712230930107542011-07-30T04:57:57.313-07:002011-07-30T04:57:57.313-07:00I could use some dog love right now--unconditional...I could use some dog love right now--unconditional, generous, wholehearted.
