Great way to remember a year!
Some of these books came my way because I needed help understanding something.
Some came to inspire me to walk by faith in the Lord.
Some came because I need to understand the questions of other people better.
Some came because they are a part of a larger conversation that God wants me involved in for reasons that are more clear to God than me.
Some came to help me introduce ways of seeing that I care about to people I care about.
Some came because I'm immature and blind and their written by people steps ahead of me that aren't so immature and blind.
I totally understand that reading this much isn't for everybody. But I'm extremely grateful that I know it is good for me. And I'm thankful I have the education and resources to do so. It kinda cracked me up to look at this list. Prior to typing it I was kinda feeling like I hadn't read much this year.

I'm reading a book called Cold Tangerines right now that I think you would really like :)
Hey Kels,

I'm so sad... I have read one book this year. It is one of those sacrifices I am making and it sometimes hurts my heart more than I ever imagined it would. I read all day long - but I read and work and read and work on understanding a language, in a language that I don't understand completely yet. Oh for the day of books to be returned to me. Missing you and looking forward to a coffee soon.

Thank you much for reading THE ECHO WITHIN in the first place, and then for sharing it with your friends. I am grateful for both.
Be in touch.
Namaste —
