This book offered a way of understanding choices we have in our lives like whether to live through the practice of love or to allow hate to absorb our thoughts. In the story, in the prison camps under Hitler's leadership, people were forced into some of the worst living conditions imaginable. One man in the story had an outcome from his experience that was much different than most. Earlier in the war, he was forced to watch his family murdered. But he had the awareness to realize that he had a choice in how he reacted to this horific event. He could allow hate to take over, as was illustrated by the soliders carrying out these orders, or make a radical choice to love no matter what circumstances he wittnessed. Because of his choice to remain under the state of love the results of his physical health were opposite of the expected results. He served as a leader and helper to the people in the camp he was held in for five years though he showed no pysical symptoms of the years of poor conditions. The doctor helping to care for the people in the camp after the war ended was astonished. This is a book that offers new ways to look at life choices and hardships. And it offers an awareness of human potential that is often forgotten in the struggles of everyday life.
