Wow, I actually pity you that you feel that a person has to see more than a search for true love and respect. BTW, most psyciatrists in these modern times would agree that love is indeed the most powerful emotion for a human being to experience and that it is truly the most important. So the last thing that I would do is "pity" the person who saw mostly love in this story.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1265120169320473011.post-91445732977075838242008-05-14T19:50:00.000-05:002008-05-14T19:50:00.000-05:00If you honestly think this book is about nothing m...If you honestly think this book is about nothing more than the search for love, I pity you. Shel Silverstein was able to use the simplicity of children's writing to reach children, have profound, powerful effect, and to create something with a universal message. The Missing Piece was a story about that need to quest so basic to the human condition. It celebrates the truth of this quest: that the goal is the journey, and that that's something to rejoice over.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
