Got Perspective? – The Noticer by Andy Andrews
Monday, April 27, 2009
1. The state of one’s ideas, the facts known to one, etc., in having a meaningful interrelationship
2. The faculty of seeing all the relevant data in a meaningful relationship
The Noticer: Sometimes, all a person needs is a little perspective by Andy Andrews soon to be published by Thomas Nelson is a quick read that packs a powerful punch. I had not heard of or read anything else by Andy Andrews, but it will not be long before I read more of his books.
A quiet ocean town is visited on and off through the years by a man named Jones who seems to know details of the lives of those he comes in contact with, but nobody seems to know much about Jones. Jones however, seems to knows exactly the right words to say to each person that he chooses to give the bigger view of perspective. To the homeless, young kid, the couple about to divorce, to the woman who thinks that her usefulness on this earth is done, and many others that Jones helps out with a strong dose of straight talk, humor, and . . . perspective. Jones teaches them to look outside of their limited view to look at their situations and problems with a bigger picture in mind.
I would highly recommend reading this book. It is a quick easy read that will impact your life. Who in your life has impacted you, and how?
