What an extraordinary thinker and writer! I started this book and immediately bought a copy for my sister who loved it so much she bought a copy for my Mama. So often he just totally hits the nail on the head. It took me a long time to finish this and I think I will probably pick it up and start at the beginning again. I'm delighted to have finally read Howard Thurman. I had heard him quoted often, now I know why. I'll be looking for more of his work.
