Book Review 1: Jonathan Livingston Seagull a story by Richard Bach


Re reading books like this one reminds me that being free to learn and keep on learning is far better than being part of the herd that is living in fear.
My new learning and an important one was in what Jon tells Fletcher, when Fletcher states, "I don't understand how you manage to love a mob that has just tried to kill you." To which Jon says, " oh, Fletch, you don't love that! You don't love hatred and evil, of course. You have to practice and see the real gull, the goodness in everyone of them and to help them see it in themselves. That's what I mean by love. It's fun when you get the knack of it."
