Learn about love and life.
This book starts by introducing characters and offering the reader insight to their character. Set in New Hampshire at Unity Farm, and India. There are colorful interchanges between the friends that give glimpses into the many types of love that life offers. Farley, a competitive golfer who has lost his game is learning to find his life, and unity farm is a portal to the universe of learning.
This is a book with a message and with a twist. The characters are well developed and inspirational messages on how to live are set in the pursuit of golf. The drama is not man against man, nature or time but rather man against himself and the unfolding mind. Each character helps to coax the best out of each other. They are spiritual friends and each time there is a lesson there are conditions set. For example Ted wants to learn golf and before Merce will help him, he has to dance in a tutu and learn ballet. Ted is a cowboy guru, student of life, parent, and lover. He teaches all who he meets the art of giving and receiving.
There are great quotes from inspirational holy men poets and philosophers to start each chapter and there are great quotes throughout the dialog
"Face life straight up because you can never run away from what is"
and "I say you are trapped by a worldly delusion into thinking your job is who you are"
The message that "self awareness takes effort" is clear and it is how you focus on life and observe the obstacles, that will inspire of dishearten.
I loved the ending and enjoyed the offerings.
