Café on the Edge of the World by John Strelecky

The latest from BT! Thanks, dear friend.

A traveler is seeking something (meaning?) and gets lost on his journey and ends up at a café in the middle of nowhere.  On the menu are the specials and the following questions:

1.  Why are you here? (transforms into Why am I here? As the diner discusses with the waitress and cook…perspective on purpose.)

2.  Do you fear death? (Don’t need to as long as you are doing #1 properly.)

3.  Are you fulfilled? (See #1)

 I read quickly, but am not a speed reader. This “book” (I say pamphlet) estimates it will take the reader 3.5 hours. It is 100 pages of pablum and took me an hour.  Says over 4 million copies sold world wide which goes to prove that the masses will do anything to avoid introspection and “finding” the answers to the BIG questions!  Reminds me of the hoopla around The Secret…and what was that one where God is a black woman? I liked it much better.

 There.  Now you don’t have to buy/read. - BT
