Books & Movies is a page where I recommend the best that I have come across and or own and have had a part in shaping me into who I am today. The ones that have either lifted me up, where outstanding, they changed my life and my understanding or were just really good. Ignorance is never bliss when the rubber meats the road. I want to know a lot about everything, as it is I am satisfied to at least know a little about a lot, since I don't think I can ever live long enough to know overly much about everything. One thing I know for sure is, the more you know the more you realize you don't know! Here are some of my favorites to put a dent in what you don't know... (I don't agree with every single thing some of the following authors say, except the Bible of course, but they are well worth the time!)
