didn't read that one, but "illusions" changed my whole life. I was seventeen, I think.

oh wait!

I *did* read 'one' ! way back when it first came out!

I love everything Richard Bach has written. The Bridge Across Forever was very good. Too bad he and Leslie got divorced. Illusions was a HS Graduation Present - I love it.

thanks...adding to my library list!

I often use this line from Illusions: "Argue your limitations and, sure enough, they're yours."

A guy friend gave me Bridge Across Forever, then I discovered it had an inscription to him from another gal. lol. I am a fan of Richard Bach's writing about flying airplanes.

I love Richard Bach too, loved Illusions and One - sorry to hear about the divorce - can't anything work out?

Well, at least I don't have to read about how cute and smart she is any more... LOL
