I really enjoyed the first two chapters of this book. I actually stated to feel like I was watching a TED video presented by the author of this novel . It read like a lecture. I find myself saying, "Where could we possibly go from the technology we have today?" I have to remind myself that there are more blocks of stone to be chipped away at.
My mom tells me a story at how someone knocked on her door one day when she was young in the 1940's. A man was selling property on Collins Avenue in Miami Beach. Her father slammed the door, and said, "That land will all be under water in a few years." If only he didn't see the square his mind made. Ahhh the Art of Possibility. "
My Comment,
Pam,
I can totally related to the book being like a written script to a TED video! I too read it like a lecture and the author truly did have some great points that really made me think, question and reflect. I love your little story of your Dad, and the following comment about the "square in his mind." Some people might read your post and say, "What does she mean by the square in his mind?" They just need to think outside the box!
