2nd meeting
via Diane Reiner ...So glad I could make it today's (6/27/12) meeting. It was wonderful talking about personal things – relationships – that have bigger implications and affect society as a whole. We had a friendly, thoughtful, communicative group today. And we laughed. :-)
I encourage anyone interested in books, relationships, and/or humanity to come along to the next meeting, which will be in two weeks - location to be announced.
Even if you haven't read the book yet, you're welcome to come. But if you can get it, pick up a copy of "The 5 Love Languages, the Secret to Love that Lasts" by Gary Chapman, read the first three chapters if you can (not difficult), and bring it along to the meeting.
Hope to see you there.
