Stop glamourising “hustle culture” and start glamourising the Frog and Toad lifestyle.

"The world is full of holy mystery that we too often dismiss as common & ordinary. How lightly we tread on miracles."

“Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.”

How calm and quiet a delight
Is it, alone,
To read and meditate and write,
By none offended, and offending none!

To walk, ride, sit or sleep at one's own ease;
And, pleasing a man's self, none other to displease.

(Charles Cotton, 1650)

you find a well-loved copy of your favourite novel at the bookstore in town - the notes in the margins from the previous owner are clever and rather amusing

I love public libraries because they are built on the principle that books are so important and so necessary to human flourishing that access to them cannot depend on your income.

You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.

This day should be a literary holiday as it's the birthday of Louisa May Alcott, CS Lewis & Madeleine L'Engle. All three had an immense effect on shaping me as a life-long reader.

Tuesday, July 12th!

In the wake of the 2020 George Floyd rebellion, Atlanta-area officials have planned to build the largest police training compound in the country -- by bulldozing the largest urban tree canopy in the country!

Anne of Green Gables gets criticized a lot for being saccharine but you know what? I *would* like to fall asleep in an apple blossom. I *am* glad to live in a world with Octobers. it *is* a splendid world and I’m very glad to be alive in it.
