An inspiring and entertaining collection of short and pithy pieces by one of Ireland's most popular religious writers. With the passing years, one of my major learnings has been that, to live a full life in the modern world, it is necessary to grow into conscious critical awareness of what one is experiencing. The speed of modern life, makes it necessary to pause often and to reflect. Otherwise, life flows over us and away from us when we live with surface feelings and emotions but without deep thought or consciousness. Throughout my later years, I have developed the practice of writing down my thoughts and some phrases that nourished my mind. This little booklet contains 700 of these that I consider creative. I offer them to the reader, not to amuse or to entertain, but as invitations to think, to reflect or to learn and maybe to be fruitfully confused. The full meaning of each one may not be immediately obvious. In fact, some of them could disturb the person willing to be stretched in their beliefs, in their style of thinking and perhaps in their behaviour.
