The Last Lecture (part 2)


This is a must read!

I started last night. I was anxious and kept peeking into it. My girls tell me you can not just pick a random spot in a book and read tidbits. I said, yes you can! I don't want to really start the book till I go to bed and can read uninterrupted. I am just getting teasers or previews. Completely okay with this kind of book.

They think I am weird.

When I finally did settle down to read it was late and i was tired, but it is such an interesting read, I got through the first few chapters.

What an amazing man. I am so impressed of his outlook on life. He makes you think and regroup. I think this book will be a great help to me. It can help me turn a negative into a positive and have a new outlook on things.

I look forward to finishing it.

It will be one of those books you keep picking up and rereading.

The Last Lecture

The other night I caught Diane Sawyler's interview with Randy Pausch. I had heard of him, but did not know his story. Her piece on him & his beautiful family was very moving.
I can not wait to get my hands on his book "The Last Lecture". It is just what this little old depressed woman needs. That or a kick in the butt. I plan to pick up a copy this week and start right away. It's due time for me to read a book, and I can not think of a better one.

I will keep you posted.
