good books and brilliant sons

i'm thinkin' i've mentioned my sons are magnificent......
but once again........there was one of them.

josh hands me a book he was reading earlier. one of our
all time favorite authors...stephen levine.
he opens a chapter called 'the sense of unworthiness'
and says 'hey, mom, i read this today, made me think of you...
you might like it.'

i stopped everything to read it right then.

i'm gonna read the whole darn book now.....

but there's this one part.......it hit fabulously.......thought i'd
share.....

'we let go of our sense of unworthiness not by submitting it
to the ax or trying to control or suppress it, but by giving it
enough room to see its own workings.'

i liked that a lot.
the book is called 'a gradual awakening'
and i'm thinking it's my latest read!!
