okay, a book that changed how I look at life..........
The Stand, by Stephen King.
Because it brought home just how easily a life threatening worldwide pandemic could get started.....
And when the crap does hit the fan, society as we know it crumbles, and you have to choose sides, which way will you go? Who will you follow? Some saw his two sides in a religious scenario.
I chose to look at Mother Abigail as "good", or "right" or "white" side.
Randall Flagg was the "bad" or "dark" or "wrong" side.
I hope, should the time ever come, I choose the right side.
Either way, its not going to be pretty. And I loved the book, but hated the movie.
