Re-reading a favorite text

I have read 3 different versions of "The Art Of War" by Sun Tzu over the past decade or so. Once again I am studying. Wow! It blows my mind time & time again. I have now memorized certain chunks of it. It's damn good stuff. When I compare parts of my life to the text it just hits so much deeper. I have learned a lot of lessons at a dear price, but painfully etched into my brain & body, they serve as physical & mental reminders. Funny thing is though how on some of them I knew better but life unravelling the way it did I quite often had to do away with sanity. Anyhow in another 10 years I will still be reading it. It's fun to visit once or twice every year.
