A provocative body of work for the soul.....this book was among the best I have read in 2007. I enjoyed Gilbert's descriptions of her spiritual journeys. Plus, I think she's into the same things I am: eating, traveling, having new experiences, people, God.
My friend thought she was 'whiny' but I found her to be truthful and intriguing. I like how she is passionate about learning about having a spiritual journey, and that she asks for help- and then trusts those she asks as wise.
Though hers is not necessarily a Christian journey, she got me excited to spend time with God again.
To make space to be with God. To be open to trying new ways to be with God. To think outside the box (ahhhhh! Christians don't think outside the box, do they!?). Anyway, the friend I borrowed this from read it because she was interested in the countries that Gilbert visited, so don't worry it's not overtly religious, plus it's on the NY Bestseller list. Please read it and let me know what you thought....... A provocative body of work for the soul.....this book was among the best I have read in 2007.
