5.0 out of 5 stars Dancing in the Rain..., May 2, 2000
By "meandjulio" (Seattle, WA & Hanover, NH) - See all my reviews
...is the only way to describe how this book makes me feel. When I open the cover I am hit with Gibran's beautiful aphorisms which run through my body like electricity. With each reading the book changes. Some will explode out of the page one time and the next hide in the shadows. Some that I carry with me always are:

~Rememberance is a form of meeting.

~Forgetfulness is a form of freedom.

~How can I lose faith in the justice of life, when the dreams of those who sleep upon feathers are not more beautiful than the dreams of those who sleep upon the earth?

It is a wonderful book in every way. I can't say enough about the beauty contained within.

5.0 out of 5 stars Aphorisms and sayings to guide your days, May 4, 2000
I love this book. It was given to me as a Mother's Day present in 1973 and I've completely worn it out. (I'm buying a new one.) The sayings reflect joy, pain, fear and Love. They touch the soul, open the heart, give insight, healing inspiration, a knowing nod and a soft chuckle. It helped me move on during a very difficult time in my life and the aphorisms have stood the test of time. They are as relevant and insightful today as they were when Kahlil Gibran first penned them.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book for that special gift, June 8, 1998
By A Customer
Every time you read this book, you obtain new interpretations. I cannot explain how reading it makes you feel. But, for me, it provides an inner peace. It is, without a doubt one of my favorites books,

3.0 out of 5 stars ...
Vague enough to enfuse with personal meaning. Meaningless read hard, and broad read softly. A good book if you want to sway in the romantic waters of an indefinite God, but hardly... Read more
