I was looking for Living Buddha, Living Christ by Thich Nhat Hanh. I had started to read it several months ago but just did not have the time to finish it. I thought now was a good time to try again, but it was out of the library. I asked for it to be held, and in the meantime picked out, An Open Heart, a book by The Dalai Lama that discusses finding compassion in our lives and based on some of his talks given in the Summer of 1999. It is the first Dalai Lama book I will have read, and the first book related to Buddhism since college. I will give more reviews or thoughts later.
