the missing piece meets the Big O


One of my favorite children's books is The Missing Piece Meets the Big O. .In fact, I'm not sure if I should label it as a children's book becoz the whole message centers on adult understanding. It's a simple story with a deep meaning and very moving. Spend a few minutes n  read it yourself..... 
This is the journey of a character becoming a "whole" person. We each need to become independent and able to "roll" by ourselves in order to make the most of life and relationships. Specifically, you can't rely on others to complete your deficiencies. The book reminds me of a Marianne Williamson quote (who also has fabulous insights on relationships)  "if you don't enjoy spending a moment with yourself, how can you expect someone to spend a lifetime with you?" ~ Think of it a bit and you will find parallels in real life .....
