Kahlil Gibran - The Prophet

Kahlil Gibran is a literary hero of mine. He writes with the delicacy and knowledge of a man who has lived a hundred lives instead of a man who died before the age of 50. In his masterpiece, The Prophet, he writes about so much of life. There is such beauty and simplicity in his words, and I often read it when I feel like a wilted flower. It is in this small book that I wonder, if every person had the opportunity to read this, would compassion grow?
If you are reading my blog post today just because you'd like to read something, I ask you to consider reading The Prophet as your next choice.
