As a child, I did absolutely nothing but read, read, read, and read some more. Adults pleaded with me to if anything, at least go outside to read just to get me out of the house. Reading to me is a supreme escape followed closely by music. I am primarily a reader of fiction and will dabble into non-fiction really only upon the suggestion of... more »

    I'm not so speedy right now! I am struggling trying to finish With Friends Like These. Doesn't help I am congested as all get out! I don't feel like doing anything! I am looking forward to starting Backseat Saints though.

    I Love you

    I love you to the moon
    I love you to the end of the planets.

    I love you till there's no love in the equator
    I love you knowing nothing could be greater
    I will love you from now until decades later.

    Let me love you now not later
    let me love you to
    Northern skies
    Western hemispheres
    without worries, fears or cares.

    Allow me to love you
    until you care
    Open up-heal from old wounds
    that you start to share.

    Our love is genuine-it can't compare.
    Now your love has opened
    like a brand new gift on Christmas
    See what happens when you allow
    someone to love you.

    The World As We See It

    the world as we see it gone
    the world as we see it vague
    the world-our world
    your world-my world
    God created.

    The world as we see it
    No longer pure-safe
    the world as we see it
    Wish to run-hide-escape.

    The world as we see it gone
    the world as we see it vague.

    The world that once was
    Free from sin-a world where
    Anger-hatred-lies to fall in
    The world that ate forbidden
    Fruit, that sends our
    Bones to hell
    Biblical verses of
    Old that still
    Prevail.

    The world that we use to know
    the world as we see it gone
    the world as we live in it
    Vague.

    Awesome book. A must read in my opinion even though it is frustrating and depressing. I experienced an array of emotions while reading this book and will probably pick it back up when I complete my 40 books. I actually liked it more than The Help. I love the author's writing style and looking forward to her next book. I'm currently 11/40 on my 40 in 2010.

    Hello Vonetta! Well, my general opinion about books that became or will become films, I wil always advise to read it before watching it. The majority of novels that were put on the screen just didn't honoured the book, so... which might be different with 'Eat, Pray, Love', cause Julia Roberts is just splendid!

    Take care,
    Carol
