drishtidevours 's review for:

The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren

3.0

---

Not sure on how should I feel to admit that I really read it 40 days straight. Each day, each chapter. It's like an everyday task of mine that I should do. Which didn't bother me because I like doing something usual. The book is like you know, 1/4 of it is the really words of the author and the 3/4 are almost all Bible verses. It taught me some things though, but I'm kind of disappointed on that 'Servant' or 'Serving' terms. It's unfairly about not caring about yourself anymore. Anyway some lines also hit me hard. Some did dismay me. I also saw that part when the author, (Rick Warren) with her wife lost a child from a suicide. That must've been hurt. Strong faith do holds your life. Most of the people I saw who reviewed this gave it a star. And that made me thinking of my attempted four star reviews (or even 5/5) But turns out not, and I'm giving a big credit to the person who let me borrow this book. To my uncle and auntie. Thank you so much! I hope I'll be able to give it back since pandemic is still on. Overall, so-so. God bless everyone ! :)
