Jonathan Livingston Seagull- Richard Bach

This is a story for people who follow their hearts and make their own rules...people who get special pleasure out of doing something well, even if only for themselves...people who know there's more to this living than meets the eye: they’ll be right there with Jonathan, flying higher and faster than ever they dreamed.

Jonathan Livingston Seagull is no ordinary bird. He believes it is every gull's right to fly, to reach the ultimate freedom of challenge and discovery, finding his greatest reward in teaching younger gulls the joy of flight and the power of dreams.

This book was a complete surprise for me, and old friend gave it to me over my book project conversation, he was gifted it by his fairly absent father as he went off to boarding school? I think and he said it meant a lot to him.

In the initial conversation i thought it was a book called Seagull by Jonathtan Livingston being pleasantly surprised at the story of Jonathan Livingston Seagull. I don’t even know how to categorise this book but it’s a wee soul journey isn’t it, so lovely in itself.

We truly can choose to live our lives however we want.

I hope i get to kōrero with this friend again one day.
