My eyes fell on Metropolitan George Khodr\u2019s book: \u201cThis World is not Enough\u201d (An-Nahar Publications 2006) in which he was interviewed by Samir Farhat. The book is not new to me. I have read it previously, once and twice, and I even wrote about it, once and twice. The book called me to grab it and take it with me. Nothing is sweeter than to sit down and have a conversation with Metropolitan George, from which you draw forth the gold coming out of his mouth. This is a \u201cfriend\u201d for every day. With it, you can always learn new things. Few are the writers who break the barrier of time and space for you; who turn your weariness into relief; your hunger to feelings of satiety, and gratitude; who  persuade  you  that  \u201cthis  world  is not enough\u201d. If you have not read the book, I recommend you do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\ufeffMy wife was standing in front of the bookcase in our house.
