I have finished reading Created to be his Help Meet by Debi Pearl.Instead of doing a review,I will tell you a few things I learned about myself while reading this book and later on I will share a few quotes from the book that meant something to me in either a positive or a negative way.So here is what I learned about myself...
1.I still harbor lots of anger about past situations,ones that occurred before my marriage.I do not bring them to my marriage,but I do know that I need to overcome this anger.
2.How wonderful my husband is,how much I love him and that I take him for granted too often.I will re-read this book as many times as I have to,just so I can never take him for granted again.
3.That I dont know whether a metaphorical view of the bible is correct,or a legalistic view is correct,as the Pearls imply.I dont think they know either,actually I dont think any human does.
I would like to encourage those who have read this book to add commentary and I would like to invite those who have not read it,to do so and then add their own commentary.I will be waiting to hear from you all!!!

I'll look for that title. I just finished reading The Memory Keeper's Daughter - about a child with DS who was given away as a newborn in the early 60's (by her father, a doctor)to a nurse to raise - very, very stirring and well-written novel, I'd recommend it. I'll look for the one you are reading.
