Illusions
Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah | Richard Bach
Richard Bach made a promise, fifty years ago, to come back through time and teach himself everything he had learned from living. The pledge was forgotten until the day when, midair in his paraglider, Richard met Dickie Bach, age nine, who expected the promise to be kept. In this intimate adventure of mind and heart, Richard sets out to show Dickie the things that matter, and finds his teaching doesn't go as planned. Here is a book spun from delight and disaster, and from surprising notions about old questions: Who are we? What do we want to do with our lives, and why aren't we doing it? Must we be the victim of circumstance instead of its master? How do we learn to love? Throughout, Leslie Parrish-Bach shares the journey, offering her counterpoint to some of Richard's more challenging beliefs. This is a journal of terror and triumph, of forgotten childhood and its keys to grown-up mysteries. Running from Safety entertains, exhilarates, inspires; a gift to those convinced that angels can meet us in the midst of storms to remind us why we've chosen to live.

This kind of reminded me of a less preachy version of the The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. It was a lot more simple and more about being happy than finding a certain treasure. I really enjoyed it, as you can tell by all the sticky tabs and by the fact that I got this book YESTERDAY. I give it 4 stars out of 5.

Ecco una prova per accertare se la tua missione sulla terra è compiuta. Se sei vivo non lo è.
Credo sia il precursore di qualsiasi testo scritto su "legge di attrazione" e affini. Un libro che nascondendosi come romanzo, ti porta a profonde riflessioni e aiuta ad ampliare il punto di vista..... la terra può essere liquida e puoi cancellare le nubi nel tuo cielo. Ovviamente bisogna vedere quanto oltre lo scritto uno voglia giungere.

Opening 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."

#inspiring and deceptively simple read. But powerful, revolutionary truth usually is not complex or difficult to comprehend. If you have been ruminating on how and why things work they way they do in this world, and how and why they could work better, prepare to be shown the way to a level of conscious living that will enrich every facet of your life.
