Jonathan Livingston Seagull by: Richard Bach

this book was recommended to me by a good friend. when i first saw the book i was thinking i maybe wouldn't like it.. but i read it.. soo good.. thought provoking, amazing. i am a different person for reading this book.
there is one point of this book that i disagree with; the idea of limits are discussed, flying faster, stronger, longer, and we are told that setting goals and limiting yourself, and you should strive to attain perfection, and you are your best self in striving for perfection. i feel that 'perfection' is a limit. what is perfection? who determines that?
also, the idea of heaven is discussed; it is not a place but a state of being. i am having trouble wrapping my mind around this concept, but i love that in a book, i love reading something that makes me think!
read this book and spread your wings
happy reading :)
