Book Reviews of Running from Safety: An Adventure of the Spirit
Book Review: inspirational! a must for all those on the path.
Summary: 5 Stars
This title suggests quite a boring novel on some physical plane, but it takes you on a journey way back to your childhood, makes you face upto your fears, brings the innocence & joy back into stale middle age & helps you to set free a mind & a joy that has remained trapped for many years. The author,Richard Bach, is a particular favourite of mine as all of his novels are intrinsicly spiritual put into such an acceptable & easily understood fashion that even the hardest of hardened sceptics will be left crying for it to be true. Such convincing dialogue leaves us believing that not only is this story actually relating a real experience, but that this type of wonderful experience is available to us all, whatever our place in the vast spectrum of humanity. Running from safety has to be the most objective & awe inspiring book available on the subject of " connecting" with your inner child & I would heartily recommend it to anyone wishing to understand themselves on a deeper level.
Summary of Running from Safety: An Adventure of the Spirit
A half-mile up, suspended by nylon wings and the promise of good lift, life hanges on a pledge. Richard Bach made that pledge, fifty years before, to return to the frightened child he used to be and teach him everything he had learned from living. His promise went unfulfilled until one day, hovering between earth and sky, Richard encounters Dickie Bach, age nine--irrepressible challenger of every notion Richard embraces....In this exhilarating adventure, Richard and Dickie probe the timeless questions both need answered if either is to be whole: Why does growing spiritually mean never growing up? Can we peacefully coexist with the consequences of our choices? Why is it that only by running from safety can we make our wildest dreams take flight?
