Synopsis
From bestselling Native American writer Joseph M. Marshall III (The Lakota Way, The Journey of Crazy Horse) comes an inspirational guide deeply rooted in Lakota spirituality.

Grandfather says this: “In life there is sadness as well as joy, losing as well as winning, falling as well as standing, hunger as well as plenty, bad as well as good. I do not say this to make you despair, but to teach you…that life is a journey sometimes walked in light and sometimes in shadow.”

Grandfather says this: “Keep going.”When a young man’s father dies, he turns to his sagacious grandfather for comfort. Together they sit underneath the family’s cottonwood tree, and the grandfather shares his perspective on life, the perseverance it requires, and the pleasure and pain of the journey. Filled with dialogue, stories, and recollections, each section focuses on a portion of the prose poem “Keep Going” and provides commentary on the text.

Hey guys, this is another good book! Recently I have a BIG BIG obsession with reading. YES YES YES i Do!!! I found this great book from Barnes & Noble. Saint Cloud, the place we are staying currently is a small beautiful, peaceful Uni campus town. Meaning, nothing much interesting places or things we can go or do. For this reason, hubby and I used to hang out there, a dating spot in our list. ;p
.
To save money, we usually we go there look for good book, then copy down the ISBN and get a cheaper copy from ebay and amazon. I just bought it from ebay last week and it is still on the way to me, can't wait to read it!
