From our Washington DC roving eye, Renata Lana:
This month, blogger Matt Certo has asked readers to vote on the Big Moo stories that have had a “significant impact” on their thinking.
I’ve participated in the poll, and I hope you do too. For one thing, I’m curious to see if my favorites match yours. More importantly, however, the question itself deserves respect. There are lots of reasons that we read and enjoy stories. Are the stories I favor those that challenge my thinking or those that affirm or articulate a belief I already have? Is one reason “better” than the other? At the very least, it has made me look again at the stories that are not my favorites and think about whether these stories are the ones that really have the most to teach me.
