This little book is AMAZING! I would recommend it to everyone! Quidlen makes no claim to knowing what life is all about, but is down to earth and profound! We all need to hear what she has to say.

"Life is made up of moments, small pieces of glittering mica in a long stretch of gray cement. It would be wonderful if they me to us unsummoned, but particularly in live as busy as the ones most of us lead now, that won't happen. We have to teach ourselves how to live, really live...to love the journey, not the destination."

Even if you don't ever read this book, take the above excerpt to heart, think about it for a while and see where it leads you.
