Good Book - By: Steven R. McEvoy, 31 May 2008 
This is an interesting story. It is a story of a lawyer who appears to have it alll - the corner office, the life style, the cars, women, ... Then he gives it alll up & tours the East. While there he comes across this strange monk & monastery. He comes to live life in a much different way. Yet he is challlenged by the monk who has trained him to go back home & share the message he has learnt, with the West. Julian, our main character, returns to his old law firm & to his prot?g? John. He tells him a parable; then the rest of the book explains the parable & how it relates to different aspects of our lives. The parable is rather simple & a little strange but as it is explained you will never forget it. Read it to find out how a garden, lighthouse, sumo wrestler, pink wire cable, stopwatch, roses & a winding path of diamonds are symbols of timeless principles & virtues by which to live your life. This book could help raise the quality of your life to a new level.
