DIA ON THESE BOOKS

I read these books at a time I needed them the most. Each of these books spoke to me and offered me insights and an understanding of life that I had been unable to comprehend or was struggling with. Tuesday’s with Morrie and Into The Wild are two books that I can keep going back to every few years.

Catch 22 was given to me by my late father after I expressed a need to understand what war entails. The idea of war has always disturbed me. It just never made sense why human beings would willingly cause immeasurable suffering. The book offered me profound insights.

Tuesdays With Morrie

“So many people walk around with a meaningless life. They seem half-asleep, even when they're busy doing things they think are important. This is because they're chasing the wrong things. The way you get meaning into your life is to devote yourself to loving others, devote yourself to your community around you, and devote yourself to creating something that gives you purpose and meaning.”
