I did not finish this book.
I was really looking forward to learning more about the Dalai Lama's spiritual journey. I love his whole Lo-ove is my Religion outlook on life, and I feel like a lot of Christian's can learn a lot from him. Especially after learning that there are so many parallels between the Dalai Lama and the Avatar: The Last Airbender series (one of my favorite cartoon series), I became extremely interested in how he discovered that he is the Dalai Lama and how he became who he is.
This book promises to answer those questions and provide insight into the Dalai Lama's life, but sadly it was more of a “how to live your life” preachy book. That would have also been enjoyable, and I probably would have kept reading if it had been well written. I know that it is non-fiction, but I still expect there to be some depth and visualization with the story. Not just “I did this.. then this happened” type writing. Mundane writing, no matter the subject, just makes me bored. I can't do it.
