Left to Tell....


I read a great book on Friday. It took me longer than i has thought. It was my day off and I was sick but couldn't sleep. So i started this book that mom gave to me to read. I started at 8:30a. and finished at 2pm. I think that is pretty good for being sick. Anyway, this is a book that I would recommend to anyone. It was very interesting to see how this woman survived the Rwanda Holocaust and to hear about the horrible things that happen between these people that had been neighbors for so many years. She is Catholic, but it is still neat to read how she had to put all her trust in God and pray that he would help her survive. If any of you come across this book in the library, please take a few hours to read it. It is a very neat book.

I saw her story on some tv news show. It was fascinating and so heart-rending.

haha..kirsten's comments are hot lately..very funny.
I'll definitely check it out. I think its so important to be aware of other's pain in the world, its so easy to judge others til you hear their story. Not everyone has been through a holocaust of course but each of us has a story to tell that would make it so much easier for us to love and appreciate even the most frustrating people ..if only we could peek into a day or two of their childhood..or their failed marriage, or the loss of their child..etc..
So Im with you, lets all read it.
