Richard Bach, author of Jonathan Livingston Seagull came out in 1977 with
Illusions ~ The Adventures Of A Reluctant Messiah.
Snipped the following from an Amazon.com editorial...
"Richard Bach takes to the air to discover the ageless truths that give
our souls wings: that people don't need airplanes to soar...that even
the darkest clouds have meaning once we lift ourselves above them...
and that messiahs can be found in the unlikeliest places--like hay
fields, one-traffic-light midwestern towns, and most of all, deep
within ourselves."
The 192 page paper back edition opens with this line...
"There was a Master come unto the earth, born in the holy land of Indiana,
raised in the mystical hills east of Fort Wayne...."
What I am planning on doing is blogging, in no particular order,
a few quotes every now and then from the book ....
'Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself.
Being true to anyone else, or anything else is not
only impossible, but the mark of a false messiah.'

Deb, thanks for sharing this quote. I needed to be reminded of this today.
HI Patricia,
Thanks for stopping in. !!
The thing I find magical about a quotation is
that just ONE sentence, can empower us and
change the set of our sails.
xo xo

I think parent benches in all game stores would be a great idea!!
But WALMART would still be the best place to people watch!

Hey Hallie,
My Dad is a Walmart greeter and I think he agrees 100% on the people watching, but there are some days when he has SEEN his FILL of people. LOL
