"Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers." ~Charles W. Eliot
Books are my addiction of choice. Entering a book store or a library instantly gives me a natural high. When visiting friends my eye naturally gravitates to their bookshelves where I learn what interests or motivates them. Nestled deep in my easy chair, shoes off, opening the book at the bookmark (never dog earing the pages!), I settle in to be whisked off to a far adventure, have my intellect stretched, or be inspired to be a better Christian husband/father/son/brother/friend.
Here are the books I am currently--and in the case of some--constantly reading.
- The New Testament
- The Book of Mormon (with Melba)
- Civility: Manners, Morals, and the Etiquette of Democracy, Stephen L. Carter
- The Life and Teachings of Jesus Christ: Volume I, Richard Holzapfel & Thomas Wayment
