I love the "Conversations for Change". What great timing for the collective conscious. My spiritual friends and I have definitely seen those in our lives and beyond seeking change in many areas of their lives. And, they are asking, how to do that. My answer is who are you being? Being comes before doing. Are you being change before rushing out and doing? We've had wonderful conversations about this topic. I just finished a wonderful memoir by Emile Barrios called, "Nub, Story of and Ex-Cripple". About the inspiring change he took on in the face of many challenges. Who he became from that is amazing. It's a very inspirationl and touching story. I hope you have a chance to read it. Here is the book website: www.emilebarrios.com I am thrilled with this post. I love the “Conversations for Change”.

Like the website. I like your April book selections. I read Atlas Shrugged a few years ago at a friend's behest and it was an interesting read. When I was at home over the break, I visited a friend who has become totally addicted to video games. Anyway, he was playing this game BioShock. I guess that I've been away from video games for awhile and wow the graphics and sound was stunning. And the world that opened up in this game was fascinating. I was watching it, I recognized some Atlas Shrugged type symbols and I commented on it to a friend and he confirmed that much of the game was based on an Objectivism scenario gone totally haywire. It was totally engrossing. I think Ayn Rand has some interesting ideas, but I'm not a devout follower or anything. The world is too complex to make it so black and white as she does. Did you notice that children are also mysteriously missing from that novel? As for the Stephen Levine book, I previewed it a bit on Amazon and it looks very interesting. It may be the next book on spirituality that I buy. Keep up the good work. Hi Todd. Like the website. I like your April book selections.
