Help Your Journey
Reads that might help you on your journey, give you a new perspective or just be fun. Linda does not necessarily agree with every word written in these books but they are books that she has found of interest at various times in her life and they are offered in that light. Audio Books are also always a great break from life as usual and many of these are available in that format.

If you find yourself fairly ignorant about spiritual paths other than your own, try Karen Armstrong. Karen Armstrong is a British author of numerous works on comparative religion, who first rose to prominence with her highly successful History of God. A former Catholic nun, she asserts that "All the great traditions are saying the same thing in much the same way, despite their surface differences." They each have in common, she says, an emphasis upon the overriding importance of compassion, as expressed by way of the Golden Rule: Do not do to others what you would not have done to you. Bill Moyers taped an interview with her after 9 11 which is also very interesting. You could read any of her books and gain a new understanding of life outside your tiny insulated world, no matter how vast your world.
