Ishmael

So this book was about a gorilla who teaches this man about the world be beaming thoughts into his brain, but that's not the amazing part- the amazing part is that Ishmael the gorilla was right. I think this is the one of the best books I've ever read.

Ishmael teaches that there is law on the behavior for all species, but we've been ignoring it for 1000's of year, and that is why we will die. The law is that you only take what you need to survive and only be concerned with yourself. We have been producing consuming to produce and consume, and think we are above this law.

We say, man was made to own the Earth, but what if it really isn't? What if our job is to be here to make other species become like us? I can't explain it as good as the gorilla can.

I don't care what you are reading, you NEED to read this now. As a quote on the back says, I divide all the books I've read into 2 catergories- those I read before Ishmael and those I read after.

Don't be a Taker- life like a Leaver.
