Two things I really, really liked about this:

1. He advocates meditation without calling it meditation (you should sit still and listen each day)

2. Helping the poor is not enough - you need to fight the structures of poverty

Although there was way too much Jesus talk for me in this book, I think this pope has it right. I'm grateful he's around in this world and I get to live in a time where he is living. He's an amazing guy.
