The Spirituality Of Imperfection

which spiritual books have you been enjoying lately – all faiths welcome.?

I don’t mean religious texts, such as the Bible, or Bhaghavad Gita, but rather books on topics like being a better person through your religion, or spiritual exercises such as writing, meditation, etc….but by all means, feel free to suggest your favorite regardless of the topic.

I’m letting you guys figure it out….

Thanks everyone
