Empowering Books

There are so many wonderful books and literature about spirituality and living and truth and seeking.  I have listed (in alphabetical order) a few that I have read and some I continue to re-read for inspiration. I know I've left a ton of them out of the list so I'll continue to update.  I list an author only once so be sure to read the author's other books also. These suggested readings run the gamut from spiritual to fun to scientific to classic - most of them are thought-provoking. 

Just because you read about a particular religion does not mean you are joinning it - life is about exploration and discovery.  Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do then by the ones you did do.  So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover...
