While at the airport, after sending my second sister off for her first experience of flight, a book store caught my attention. I had to go in there and browse at stuffs. I was not at a good place, emotionally, and I needed enlightenment from whatever ways possible. I thought, since my interest for art has grown so unexpectedly, why not read some books?
I bought 2 books
"Shit My Dad Says" by Justin Halpern
"A Simple Act Of Gratitude" by John Kralik
One day later, I finished reading the first book. I'm so amazed by my sudden change of interest. It's been a long time since I last read a proper book, let alone finish it. It felt great, it was as if I had taken a journey with the author of the book. The quotes inside of the books are too god damn great. I'll list a few and you will have to go and buy the book to read the rest.
"People are always trying to tell you how they feel. Some say it outright, and some of them, they tell you with their actions. And you have to listen. Listen, and don't ignore what you hear."
"That woman was sexy. . . . Out of your league? Son, let women figure out why they won't screw you. Don't do it for them."
"Focus on living, dying is the easy part."
Freaking piece of art. Go get it!
