Journal Entry 1 by Tintti from Jyväskylä, Keski-Suomi Finland on Sunday, November 05, 2006

In bookshop this book was in the travel book section, but since it is not exactly a travel book, I categorized it as nonficiton.

Isabel Losada wants to find out what an ordinary person can do to change the world. She wants to act against violence, and because Dalai Lama is the world's leading proponent of non-violence, she ends up campaigning for Tibet.

Sometimes you just have to do something, don't you? Sometimes an injustice comes along and you think "No, this cannot be" and - rather than just sigh, turn off the TV or throw away the newspaper - you know it's time to act.

I love the attitude of Losada - she does everything with joy in her heart, and doesn't care if others think she is stupid because she takes action for a cause that she has no reason to get involved with. It's great that there are people like her. This book made me smile and gave me hope.
