The Tao of Pooh (beginning)

For my second free-choice novel and last book overall, I have decided to read the book The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff.  I decided to read this for a couple of reasons.  First of all, I know a couple friends who have read this book and said that it was very interesting and a fun book to read.  For that reason alone I am excited to read it.  But I have another reason to read it.  You see, I am not really religious.  I never attend church, synagogue, or any other religious temple.  However, I do celebrate the biggest Christian holidays because my mom is was raised Christian, but she does not really practice it anymore.  With that said, I would consider myself a spiritual person.  I definitely believe that there is a God, but I do not really believe in a Christian God.  There are some more intricacies to my "religion" that I will not get into at the moment, but you get the idea.  When I learned about Taoism in a social studies class, I was intrigued.  I love the theory of "the natural way" and I try to live my life like that as much as I can.  I think that this book, and introduction in Taoism, can show me what true Taoism is like and maybe inspire me to go deeper into that philosophy.  I am extremely excited to read this book and cannot wait to get started.
