Summary: Family Guy's Church of the Fonz is more credible than this load 2008-09-06
Comment: I just finished this book last night. What an endurance contest, it reminded me of the time I drank the new Coca Cola formula. I put my hand to my forehead and said to myself, "What were they thinking"? Same thing here, but worse because people are taking this David Koresh wannabe seriously.

Summary: Acceptance, Enjoyment, Enthusiasm 2008-09-05
Comment: The author's recommendations - acceptance, enjoyment, & enthusiasm - seem to diminish in that order in differentiating between someone who finds a new purpose in living and someone who is devoted to a selfish and materialistic lifestyle. Granted that "acceptance" is crucial at the gateway to a new inner self. But the latter two traits can be equally applicable to pursuing a materialistic lifestyle. Perhaps a more distinctive approach following acceptance would be "others-centeredness" and "personal satisfaction." Acceptance seems the hardest challenge in a materialistic society. Once we accept our existence, we must realize that our purpose in life on earth is to care for others. In our materialistic society, an equally difficult challenge is to shift our focus to the welfare of others. But it is through this effort that we realize enjoyment, satisfaction of purpose, and self-worth. And enthusiasm then comes naturally.Love and Immortality: Long Journey of My Heart

Summary: Enlightening and Worth the Read 2008-09-03
Comment: This book, at least at first, is not easy to get through. It's dry, written in a kind of monotone (which is also how Tolle speaks), and a bit dense in terms of language. But Tolle is, truly, an enlightened being, and for people who are open to what he has to say, his words ring true in very profound and helpful ways.
It's important to know that this isn't another "What Should I do with My Life" guidebook. It's really about learning to live in the present moment and have your life's purpose come from within rather than from the expectations others have of us. I have returned to it on many occasions to re-read and remind myself of how to live in the now.

Summary: Good book 2008-09-02
Comment: I am still in the process of reading the book. Almost finished though,
It's a good book. But I couldn't help feeling that the author doesn't really take women's hormones into account. It's not so easy for us ladies just to be non-reactive and say, "Is that so?" I felt like it would be great in a fairy tale world. And I am sure it is MUCH easier for men to place this into action than women who are on a pms overload every month. Unfortunately I feel disadvantaged to try to say "Is that so?" to every situation that pops up. "This to shall pass"
