our cg chose to read this book for our new study: A Million Miles in a Thousand Years: What I learned while editing my life by Donald Miller. i had been wanting to read this book ever since i visited a friend back in january and she was just finishing reading it and kept talking about it.i didn't know what to expect since i had heard mixed things about his other popular book, Blue Like Jazz. we've only read through part 1 so far, but i think i'm liking it. his writing style definitely takes getting used to, but i enjoy his stream of thoughts b/c it's kind of similar to how i think about things. he also poses a lot of questions or talks about things he reacted to and i find myself wondering how i would've reacted had i been in that situation.
i also think that being able to discuss the book with the other gals in my cg helps me to find the main thoughts or thought process of the book....granted this first section didn't have a ton of deep stuff to talk about. i'm definitely looking forward to reading deeper into the book and excited to see what God might show me through it.
oh one thing that i found interesting is that the author talks about how "the saddest thing about life is you don't remember half of it." which made me think of this blog and why i wanted to start blogging again.....so i don't forget or have something to help me remember different events of my life (big or small). which is why i'm here writing this post. i love it when you read something and it "intersects" with something else going on in your life.
