A wise man once said, let your heart be your guide. I always believed that the pages ahead (in any book) will speak to your heart as much as to your mind; if only you let it. You might discover some interesting people and learn some interesting thing as you read on.
My dad made me crazy in love with books and reading since I was a kid. This is one of the many things we share in common; besides sports, politics and culture.
Today he showed me a book he bought from Reader's Digest. I would say it's a beautifully-compiled treasure: it has 4,000 of the funniest, cleverest, most insightful things ever said by famous (and infamous) people of all walks of life. I've only read til page 59 and I discovered a paragraph so beautiful and significant in life (something we should be reminded of every day).
Even though you may want to move forward in life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life - Mary Manin Morrissey.
What is it you would let go of today? I can think of a few things and people who I would like to be 'free of'. I hope to release the hurt.
