Love Does

In order to pass the time away in the car, we have been reading this awesome book called Love Does by Bob Goff. He talks about how true love engages with every moment of life, seeing all experiences as an opportunities to put hands and feet to love. His stories have kept us laughing when San Francisco and L.A. traffic could have made us lose our minds. 

At the beginning of his book he talks about setting up office on Tom Sawyer Island in Disneyland. Then at the end of the book he gives his cell phone number and invites the reader to give him a call. Since we have loved his stories and the philosophy behind his book we decided to give him a call. The first time he did not answer but we left a voicemail. His talk of persistence in the book really inspired us and so we decided to practice what we were learning and call him persistently until we heard back. Sometimes his phone was off and we didn't leave a voice message so we figured if he couldn't see the missed calls we probably weren't pestering him too badly. 

But really. You should read this book. Its awesome.
