Some books immediately captivate me...others don't. The impatience in me generally leads me to walk away from the latter vs. muddle my way through it. However - since I committed to this little 'online book club' - I will not accept defeat - if for nothing more than as a personal challenge.
So what am I saying? The book just hasn't captivated me yet. The style of writing I find a bit difficult to follow, but nonetheless...Chapter 2.
Perhaps what I gleaned from the chapter could be summarized in this...
Be Thankful.
Seems simple enough but let's take it a step further...
Be Thankful...for everything.
The good...and the bad.
Health...
and sickness.
Promotion...
and job loss.
Birth...
and death.
Be Thankful.
Now that carries more weight.
I don't think I want to dive in too deep here...but let this resonate. Why on earth should we be thankful for the very things that break our hearts?
This song comes to mind.
