Living, Loving & Learning By Leo F. Buscagllia

The year was 1986. That was the first time I ever heard about a Dr. Leo Buscaglia. I was going through a rough patch in life, uncertain of life and everything in general. Then, there was this guy who teaches love in his book. He advocated Trust and Trust Love. In the world where people are suspicious of one another, nations against nations, dog eats dog, to trust and to love is risky. Yet Risk is part of living. He warns, "the person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, and becomes nothing." Life as written by Leo Bugcalia is, in his own words "is not the goal, it's the trip that's life: Life is the trip; life is the process; life is getting there." I was encouraged to see life differently, that "wow" feeling was able to help me through the roough patch in life then.
