When I Read A Book...


When I read a book I seem to read it with my eyes only, but now and then I come across a passage, perhaps only a phrase, which has a meaning for me, and it becomes part of me...

Sometimes, it is only the beginning...

  3. Oh Noelle, I love this picture. I think I will show it to Nel, as she is the book lover of the family. It's wonderful that you love to read so much. I bet it takes you from one adventure to another. I must get back to it as soon as I find our final home to settle in. Have been so busy with that lately.

    Have a happy week.

    Love,

  4. Dear Sheri,
    Reading has been the one constant in my life (for which I'll be forever grateful to my Granny!).
    Your final home sounds so...final! Both ex-RAF hubby and I have lived in so many places, I daresay we still have a few more homes in the future...
    Books, telescopes, a handful of 'precious' hand me downs and a roof have always been the only prerequisite! Who knows where the winds will take us next...
    Blessings Dear, it's always nice to hear from you!

  6. Once upon a time...roots of the past that grow into the tree of the future. I always picture my tree as the Willow.

    Thank you for this.

    1. A willow did you say? Very nice! You know all I could come up with is I want to be a Christmas tree...
      Must be the child in me? I am hopeless, I know!

  7. Outside a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside a dog it is too dark to read.

    Thanx for visiting my Blog and commenting there. If you like to read you can download my FREE E Books from my Blog. Come to think of it ... perhaps I should read them sometime!

    God bless you and yours.
