THE ROAD LESS TRAVELLED: A Veteran reflects on the road he chose

A 40-year anniversary tribute to M. Scott Peck’s timeless self-help book The Road Less Traveled. 

The Road Less Traveled: A New Psychology of Love, Traditional Values and Spiritual Growth by M. Scott Peck, M.D., was published 40 years ago. Many would say Dr. Peck's book is the summa of the self-help movement.

How did I discover this timeless book? What thoughts and feelings surfaced when I read it? More importantly, how do I see The Road Less Traveled as an imperative for spiritual growth in this actual life, lived out daily, as a veteran and a civilian?
