Three Books

I was thinking about the movie “Time Machine” – the old one. At the end of the movie, the time traveler returns for a brief time then leaves never to be seen again. The housekeeper notices there are three books missing after he leaves. What three books did he take back to the future? What three books do you think he took? What three books would you take? Would the books you chose be on medicine, history, how to, philosophy, poetry, psychology, the Bible or other religious text, dictionary, child rearing … what three books would you think so necessary for future generations that you would make a death defying trip to retrieve and take back with you? Just wondering…

Causes me to pause and wonder what three books we are sharing now with the future generations. Are these books so valuable to us that we would risk our lives for them? Just wondering...
