Thank you! Could you tell me what you liked about A New Earth? I am curious. New Day.

I have been interested in the spiritual and in becoming more aware, so this book fits into that perfectly but the topic is presented in such a simple clear way that even ideas that are not easy to discuss with words are understandable through example and stories.  His perspective is eye opening and I often found myself going Oh that makes sense, or I do that.  Throughout the book I had Ah-ha moments and found myself understanding things that I do and others around me do giving me a better understanding, and more moments of true awareness of the now I am experiencing.

Have you read the book and if so, what did you get from it?  Curiosity is a good thing.

Hi again, no I have not read the book, so I would like to pick it up. Thanks for telling me more about it. I love reading books that give me "Ah-ha" moments too.

If you do pick it up, there is a whole area devoted to this book on the Oprah web site. It was a ten-week class she had online with the author and people emailing and calling in from all over the world. This is the URL to that area of her web site: http://www.oprah.com/community/community/bookclub/
