I really enjoyed reading this book. It was very relaxing even though I was doing work. The three reasons why I think we read the book was that one learning how to be idle bright bring back respect for the environment with there more friendly attitudes, help surface the personality within you to help figure out your own true feelings, the book was general to the stereotypes that might help explain the behavior of some of the past authors and lastly to question as an individual the social norms and question its application and apply pressure against them. My favorite chapters that I could relate to is the conversing, moon and starts and napping. I feel I can initially act idle and do some of the activities but being idle for to long I get board and then I feel useless and the guilt sinks in and that I should be doing something. Leslie
