Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
A half-mile up, suspended by nylon wings and the promise of good lift, life hanges on a pledge.  Richard Bach made that pledge, fifty years before, to return to the frightened child he used to be and teach him everything he had learned from living.  His promise went unfulfilled until one day, hovering between earth and sky, Richard encounters Dickie Bach, age nine--irrepressible challenger of every notion Richard embraces....

In this exhilarating adventure, Richard and Dickie probe the timeless questions both need answered if either is to be whole: Why does growing spiritually mean never growing up? Can we peacefully coexist with the consequences of our choices? Why is it that only by running from safety can we make our wildest dreams take flight?



Customer Reviews
User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Essential Reading
Life is! Richard Bach makes this his central premise. We are immortal, indestrucible, if only we can release those fears that all of us have locked inside. This has long been one of my most favourite books and my most inspirational. Don't read it on face value; on the other hand don't try to read into it either. Running From Safety is a book which looks at a simple idea: we are, we have been, and we always will be.
What more essential knowledge could there be?



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent read for the right mind!
Great book. It will appeal to you only if you are ready to read a book in its class. If you manage to read the whole book, you will gain alot from it. If you have acquired this book it must be meant for you. Read it!



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Afraid of taking risks? Read this!
This is one of the very few books which teach how to come out of comfort zone! If one wants to take risks, he/she needs to come out of so called 'safety zone'. These lines are enough to describe this book.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Inner Child meets Grown Man
This is a dichotomy of inner child meeting up with grown man, in metaphorical terms. An autobiographical account of the author's life, although a mental stretch, will make the reader re-examine their lives and choices along the way. Made me laugh and cry.

Rated by buyers 3 out of 5 stars - Average Richard Bach Book
I didn't feel there was any new content in this book, it seemed to me to be a different story on what Richard has already talked about in his other books. Still the basic story was good and worth reading.
