I Asked for Wonder (2)

Title: I Asked for Wonder: A Spiritual Anthology
Author: Abraham Joshua Heschel
Genre: Non-Fiction

While I enjoyed this book and found some really inspirational passages and many thought provoking books I now wish I hadn’t tried to read it from front to back like a normal book. I wish I had read it much more slowly, say over the course of many months or even a year. This collection of Heschel’s work on several different spiritual topics is full of deep meaning and context that I need to process and work through. It would have been better to read one section and at times even one paragraph a day or week and really thought about it and figured out if it had meaning or not to me. And if it had meaning what was it? Only after working all that out should I have moved on. When I re-read this that’s the way I’ll do it.
