"We can go through each dayor a lifetimeas sleepwalkers while awake, tossing and turning on pillows that are as hard as appointment books, wandering a paved spiritual wilderness from bank window to house of worship to hospital bedside. But if we are fortunate enough to happen upon a vision of the Divinein a chance chat with a semi-stranger or a lingering conversation with a good friendwe can awaken to the spirituality between people that Martin Buber called I-Thou." from God in Our Relationships It is possible to infuse every moment of life with meaningfrom the routine act to the once-in-a-lifetime situationand this first-of-its-kind introduction to Martin Buber's I-Thou shows you how.
