The most important my deceased husband told me was that if the author didn't care enough to write an interesting book then I didn't have to honor him with plowing thru it. That freed me from a lot of dull books.
I was taught by my grandmother to always look at the person I was listening to and be alert to the sunday morning sermon speaker. (Granddad was the minister) What freedom to know that just because I started something that wasn't what I had in mind, I could defer it to later (or just leave it). I have walked out of a lot of programs at intermission time. At least I am polite enough to wait til then.
