Oprah

What can I say? I love her.

And this month she is doing two things that I first was leery of and now I am thinking I am going to investigate.

The first one is this TV series - the Big Give. We talked about it last night at Book Group and were kind of skeptical. But today I watched the promo and thought - it is going to be really interesting. It is true - psychologically and spiritually and every which way - that giving gives life. And Oprah has demonstrated it over and over again in her life and now is going to show us with reality TV. I will report back if I think it is cheesy.

And then the other thing is this book class - on the book - A New Earth. Again I have been resistant. Some of which is because I did not like the Secret. But I am going for it. I will buy the book this week and I even encouraged the book club to read it. What the heck - if the rest of the WORLD is reading it - maybe we should be current.

Oprah is all about transformation - which is the current buzzword at the church - which I hate - but I love Oprah.

don't you?

I'm a closet Oprah magazine reader! I watched Oprah a lot during my maternity leave 2 years ago. I like her, too.

My co-worker is raving about The New Earth. I am going to check it out. I read The Power of Now and some articles about the author, Eckhart Tolle, and I admire him and his work.

Please keep us posted!!
