This week I am re-reading "The Shack" by William Paul Young. I have been wanting to read it again since finishing it in August but just hadn't gotten around to it. But this Thursday at 7 PM I am leading a discussion group on it so I thought it would be a good idea to reacquaint myself with it. Between last night and this morning I have read the first 114 pages.

It is an intriguing book, this story of Mack who feels The Great Sadness and is given an opportunity to share time with someone who can transform him. I've known The Great Sadness and experience it from time to time. A book like "The Shack" helps me to realize I'm not alone.

Throughout my life, I have been a wandering minstrel who enjoys writing and singing songs as well as writing and telling stories. I also enjoy listening to and reading books. Along the way, it is a delight to travel and spend time with my family and friends. I like banana splits but seem to rarely have one. Most days I take walks and a lot of days I take pictures of what is around me. My aim is to reflect hope as I travel through life.
