This afternoon I went to a bookstore after school ... was thinking to pick up a book that I have heard so much about it recently for my friend and myself ... then I ended up coming home with 4 books for myself .... Chinese and English books ... This will be my READING week ....
I spent the rest of the afternoon reading this book - " The present " by Spencer Johnson , who is the author of the No.1 bestselling book " who moved my cheese ? " ( I read that book many years ago ... )
In fact , I have seen this book on the shelf many times ... but never bothered to take a look at it .... perhaps I was not in that kind of mood for this so-called " inspiring book "
Anyway, I walked past it again today ... and saw it out of the corner of my eye , so I turned back and decided to pick it up .... and it got me all interested in finding out what is this book about ...... so as soon as I got home and puy my stuff down , I began reading it ....
is a story about a young man who discovers a way to make his work and life more enjoyable each day .....
and once you receive the PRESENT , you enjoy things more, and you are able to do whatever you do better each day
and in the story , the young man realised that the joy of those presents he had gotten from people in his life didn't last very long .... he became dissatisfied , he always seemed to want more - more friends , more things , more excitement .......
When you receive the PRESENT , you no longer spend your time dreaming about being somewhere else ...
The PRESENT can lead you to many kinds of riches .....
SO what is " the PRESENT " anyway ??
YOU ALREADY KNOW WHAT THE PRESENT IS .
YOU ALREADY KNOW WHERE TO FIND IT .
AND YOU ALREADY KNOW HOW IT CAN MAKE YOU HAPPIER AND MORE SUCCESSFUL .
YOU KNEW IT BEST WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER .
YOU HAVE SIMPLY FORGOTTEN .
Do you want to know what " The Present " is ?? GO and get this book and read it yourself ........ ha ha ha ........ I have just finished it ... I can't tell you how I feel ....
because different people get different things from the same story they have heard ... and same for this book , people get different things from " the Present " , depending on where they are in their work or life when they hear it ... it's not just what is in the story . It's what you take out of it that gives it value ....
and just like in the book , if you are holding a skeptical attitude when you read this book .... perhaps you are thinking .... really ?? Tanya thinks it's a good book ...I've got to read it to see if she is telling the truth ....... then forget about it ...because this will be the type of story you might dismiss too easily .
Enjoy ....... Going to my next book .... and I know that I will be crying my eyes out .....
