What I've been reading

Lost and Philosophy: The Island has its Reasons edited by Sharon M. Kaye. Reading this book was grim remainder of how many little facts I missed and to make matters worse, this book was written in 2008 before the final two seasons. It has so much information packed, I had to take notes and need to catch-up on the writings of some philosophers.

Story of Lost connects with the viewers because it emulates our life, our questions, our longings and our search to find meaning. This book is not about answers but its about asking the right questions. Now that I have read this book, I have to watch Lost again sometime this winter. This time I will watching it as a student.
