thought overload

I've been reading books for as long as I can remember, but I've always been able to emotionally detach myself from the story. Until recently, that is. I started reading Tuesdays With Morrie, and on the back there are raves from different magazines all talking about how the book has changed so many lives. When I first read that I scoffed at the idea of a book affecting many so strongly, then I began to read. If you haven't had the chance to read this book, I highly recommend it. I'm about halfway through and I feel a connection to this incredible piece of literature. It has brought an overload of thoughts, and a deeper understanding of myself. I find myself questioning my own behavior in addition to everyone's around me.
