A Book a Month?

So, I'm making an attempt to read one non-school related book a month. We will see how far I get with it, but I figure it's worth a shot.

First choice is Donald Miller's A Million Miles In a Thousand Years. So far it is an engrossing read and amazingly relates quite closely with my creative writing class. In it, Miller is chronicling the process of turning his highly successful memoir Blue Like Jazz into a movie with the help of two writers. Miller constantly addresses the issue of what exactly it is that makes our life meaningful and it has got me thinking about the issue as well. What is it? The relationships, the people, the things, the money...? To tell you the truth, I really am not quite sure, but Miller has me thinking about it.

"The truth is, if what we choose to do with our lives won't make a story meaningful, it won't make a life meaningful either"
