This book came about through a stream of conscious typing experience that lasted for twenty-one days. I’d just come back from a year of backpacking the world and something had opened within me. Something told me to sit down at my computer and start typing.
Luckily, I listened.
I recommend this book to anyone. I was in a transitional period in life when I found this book. I had just moved to a brand new state where I didn’t know many people, while also starting a new job. This book opened up my perspective on life and really helped me make the transition into a new life smoothly. I have given this book to a few of my friends and they also really enjoyed it.
First I bought the book because of the title without even knowing what was it about, I love doing that, lots of my books surprise me, it was amazing, make me reflect so much, finding a purpose that I didn’t even know or care to find! Sometimes we all need to take a road trip to a Cafe at the edge of the world. Great book highly recommended, mainly for someone that is looking for a path, a calling in life, is easy to read and understand, the author did an amazing job 👌
Quick read — and really makes you think. I am retired, still searching for the meaning in life, and have studied these things for years. This is a fun and easy way to learn about the important things in life that people don’t take the time to learn. Great book!
