Has anybody else here read the book Ishmael by Daniel Quinn? Just wondering if anybody was as majorly effected by it as I was. It literally made me rethink my life xD
For those of you who haven't read it, you should. This is what the back says:
TEACHER SEEKS PUPIL. Must have an earnest desire to save the world. Apply in person.
It was just a three-line ad in the personals section, but it launched the adventure of a lifetime...
So begins Ishmael, an utterly unique and captivating novel that has earned a large and passionate following among readers and critics alike--one of the most beloved and bestselling novels of spiritual adventure ever published.

Sounds wonderful. I'll see if it is in the library tomorrow. I don't think it is, but I'll just request it if it isn't. I can't wait to get my hands on it.

It is the most AMAZING book ever. As long as you like philosophy. It doesn't have to much of a plot line, just a lot of contemplating ideas, and if you're looking for some kind of adventure book, it's not for you, but if you want to do some deep thinking it is great <3
It is written really well, and if you don't understand something, don't worry it'll all clear up. And if not... go back and read it again xD

Today, as I was relaxing at the beach, I couldn’t help but eavesdrop on a conversation four high school kids we having on the beach blanket next to me.He refused medical Ottawa Escorts aid, saying the Ottawa Asian Escort only problem was the stain on his slacks, but it would wash out. He was given a fresh Ottawa Escort refill. Before Sherman drove off, the restaurant manager, John Johnson, gave him two free gift certificates--one for an Ottawa Asian Escorts extra-large coffee and one for the restaurant's newest sandwich, the McRapTheir conversation was about making a positive difference in the world. And it went something like this.
