I know we've talked about books before. You can search "books" on the main site and it will take you to our previous discussions. But I don't think I've asked you this question: What is the #1 book of all time that totally blew your mind, broke your heart, changed...
So...lucky enough to have a Skype conversation with David today. Always invigorating. Always challenging. Always reminds me that I'm sane. I'm grateful. We caught up. We shared stories. We commiserated. We talked of our endless desires, his and mine. Mine? To somehow...
