Book Review: March 2010

Maybe my working from home is killing my reading. I don't seem to get through as many books as I used to when I would have to commute every day. :-)

In March I read Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin. It is the story of one man's mission to educate children, especially girls, in Central Asia. He began this mission in the mid 1990's. After 9/11, this mission became more crucial, as Greg believes education is the best way to fight terrorism.
I highly, highly recommend this book and learning more about this organization.

It is a true story that shows how one person's sacrifice and hard work can truly make a difference in the world. If this story does not motivate you to dream and keep working on a goal, I'm not sure if anything else could.
