The Shack: "Missy Project"



If there's anything I love to do more in this world it's READING. My spiritual adviser has always been and will always be my mother. Granted numero uno is GOD of course, but here on this earth when it comes to things that involve GOD my mother is conduit I choose to use when I may feel out of touch or just lost in general. It's like this...if you put me in an environment of wrestling (i.e. me watching matches, participating myself, or listening and learning) I am in my zone. I soak everything up and can give my philosophy in seven seconds flat. I am in the zone. When it comes to things involving GOD I see the sparkle in my mother's eye and she is in her zone. It's amazing. It's like a "shop-a-holic" having an endless budget each day for spending. They will be in their zone.

I took a little tangent, but getting back to this post's true purpose, I recently was referred a book by my mother entitled "The Shack". I believe it's listed as fiction, but the story is--according to the author--based on true story, and a real encounter. I don't want to spoil the book, but just refer the book to any and everyone. Even if you don't like to read, just read it. You will be able to relate to this book. Anyone who reads it is asked to either blog, refer the book, or let others know in anyway possible. I blog, so I'm informing you now.

What's kind of coincidential was how I was on the train reading it and a woman looked over and realized what book I was reading. I had only completed fourty some odd pages and she was quick to tell me how good the book was. She said it changed the way she looks at a lot of things. Somehow you feel different after reading it. Hearing that I was eager to keep reading on. I did reach a point in the book where I had to sit it down for a little while and think about what it was I was reading. That's all I have to say about that.

If people have read it already don't hesitate to leave a comment.
