I really believed that Khalil Gibran's, Love Letters in the Sand, would be a much shorter read. It wasn't a long read but, I found myself slowing down, taking in, and really feeling each piece presented. The writing has a nice flow, the font is easy on the eyes, and each piece leaves you reflecting on what you just read. There is no preaching or any of that "deep" poetry that leaves you confused. Yet, I did find myself thinking and not in that whole college level thinking about the world around me but, thinking about me and envisioning myself at peace in the world.

And I liked that.

I'll be reading this book many times over; maybe while wearing a long flowing skirt and a thick sweater while drinking hot tea on a cold misty morning or, maybe while sitting under a cloudless blue sky while the sun's warmth dances across my shoulders. It is that type of book that provokes this type of thinking. ( )
