One puts aside the ache of ambition.
The hurry of hunger one puts out the door into a dish for the cats.
One must stand and slowly turn the switch... until a faint hitch in the turning says Now, and the light flickers on.
Each moment... a genesis in the Gospel of Gentleness.

IN SEARCH OF AMERICA: “Nobody knows. What good’s an opinion if you don’t know? My grandfather knew the number of whiskers in the Almighty’s beard. I don’t even know what happened yesterday, let alone tomorrow... We’ve got nothing to go on - got no way to think about things.”

An old timer drives off one day to rediscover the world - perfect armchair reading for this fellow old timer. A wonderful book! Highly recommended reading for reconnecting with our basic humanity.

Gosseyn had a sudden vivid picture of these Earthmen beginning to realize that they had been pawns.

Superb!

Kierkegaard’s Dad, Michael, once told a friend: “When I can’t sleep I lie down and talk with my boys, and there is no better conversation here in Copenhagen.”

The perfect sci-fi getaway for the compulsive reader. Van Vogt’s rich, serpentine plot never fails to stagger one’s imagination. At the one-third point, the hero escapes the death he endured on Earth AS WELL AS a mysterious post-mortem Venusian captivity, with plenty of fisticuffs to prove he’s still alive!

‘Our hidden years are Sacred Years.’
An audiobook read by the author, with her own very pleasing tone of voice. A warmly encouraging message for those of us who are in a less public phase of our lives!

The Day Emily finds a gaping hole in her wall, she loses it - and has a vivid Conversion Experience. She awakes to the sound of Max reciting the whole script of Toy Story. Sunlight fills the room. She thinks, ‘This is the LAST DAY of my LIFE, & I’m gonna live it that way - autism will NOT HOLD US HOSTAGE!’

The everyday heartbreak of life on the raw rollercoaster of Faith...

A steal today on Amazon at $1.99!

A slow start in W’s former stodgily parochial parish, but he’s making up his mind to move to the environment of the inner city to work.

The hidden demons within the Soul of the Modern Machine reveal themselves all to plainly, in an unguarded moment - and suddenly this Utopia shows too clearly the deep cracks within its sybaritic structure...

The Machine was already older than any known living human being. Self-renewing, conscious of its life and of its purpose, it remained greater than any individual... In three hundred years, people had come to accept its decisions as to who should rule them.

Little body little block heart beating ash grey only upright. Earth sky as one all sides endlessness little body only upright. In the sand no hold one step more in the endlessness he will make it.

The book is highly inventive, personable - and full of lovable quips and characters. The current chapter about Darius’ first day in Iran is jokingly entitled “A Brief History of US/Iranian Relations”, in which Darius gets to know his Persian extended family!

What a delightful and vastly entertaining off-most-folks’-radar kind of book. And there is much to learn here too - and so effortlessly that one feels one’s vistas being vastly expanded without concentration! It REALLY makes us happy to be OURSELVES!
Feel alone? You won’t after reading THIS.

HIGHLY Recommended Reading!!!!!!!

An OUTRAGEOUSLY beautiful book, and the audiobook is so PERFECTLY narrated! Middle Class American, burnt-out and bullied teenaged angst meets the Unabashed Joie de Vivre and Gusto of warm-blooded Iran!

A few years back, Dr. Mary Neal died and went to Heaven. Seriously. But being a vocal Christian she decided to let all America know about it after her resuscitation. She was the first of a spate of prominent M.D.s who have since come forward to explode a bleak modern myth, viz “Once you’re dead, you’re dead!”

This wonderful Christian series of historical novels, a Christy Award winner, is set in the 1750’s in Nova Scotia, Canada. It was the time of the infamous Acadian Expulsion, and two friends, both young brides, from the separate English and French factions, wrestle with their faith and the lines that divide them in this time of unrest.

Whenever I get distracted and distraught by all the Glitz and Glamour on my iPad, I read just a few pages of this timeless masterpiece. It reboots my system and turns my feet firmly back on the tried and true Old Road!

If you’re remotely interested in Kierkegaard, this amazing little reconstruction of his life - so defiantly individual and iconoclastic by nature - will grab your attention from the start. After God made Kierkegaard He broke the mold!

Poor old Watts spends the beginning chapter roundly dissing, then rejecting, the churches as likely purveyors of peace. Bless him, are Eastern religions a more auspicious avenue to real happiness than those? Not in my experience - but I’ll patiently hear him out...

That which is most creative is emptiness - from which we shrink.
Lao-Tzu

Love this book - the family is packing for the long flight to Iran next day. Half way around the globe from Portland...

What a simply charming story. Darius, angst-ridden high school sophomore, is going to Iran to visit his family’s close relatives. Will he finally FIND himself there?

“There’s an App for that too...” George is now the proud, though unknowing, owner of a spiffy new Time Machine - but he thinks it’s only an Apple Watch. Hang on to your hats!
