----- A blog of things to eat, read and do in Tampa------
A new medium for books is Audible.com and ITunes being able to listen to books instead of reading. I find that listening to books is far more practicle; continuing on everyday life with the luxury of listening to the soothing voice of any book of choice.
Recently, I ordered the Steve Martin book Born Standing Up this book was depressing. Steve Martin tells a sad and slightly funny story of his lonely struggle to popularity. He voices his feelings of inadiquacy towards his father. Steve was constantly trying to prove his worth and never could full fill his fathers expectactions and therefore never his own
Martin is still single and has no childern, he remains single because of a fear of intamcy, always with holding his feelings from his significant other. Born Standing Up leaves you with pity and dispear. Pity because he will never be fully happy, the closest he will ever feel happiness is vicariously through the joy he brings other. Which, brings you to dispear some people like him can have all the things in the world and never be truely happy.http://www.audible.com/adbl/site/template/t1/promotionalLanding.jsp?BV_UseBVCookie=Yes&fo=COMA0209WS021609
