QUOTE OF THE NOW

"Our life evokes our character. You find out more about yourself as you go on. That's why it's good to be able to put yourself in situations that will evoke your higher nature rather than your lower. 'Lead us not into temptation.'" Joseph Campbell

A book, a view, and a cup of tea

Do you have a favorite spot where you like to read?

At home it's just the bed or the sofa. When I'm on vacation I usually have a fave spot, though. On a family trip to Trinidad when I was younger, it was reading Les Miserables on the balcony, my feet up on the railing.

At dad and step-mommy's house it's the chairs by the front window. My dad calls it my office. A reading lamp, a plug for my computer, and views.

 




I like to look out at the view and watch it change throughout the day.










At my mother's place, in the summer, I like to sit at the back door. Have my breakfast toast and tea and read and watch the many cats and dogs roaming about.



Of course if it's cold...
