Soul Food #90

I mentioned this last week~..Thich Nhat Hanh


I highly recommend it~

From.."It is a great joy to hold your grandchild"~ to" Flower insights~"


It is a book to have and to hold~




The Dandelion Has My Smile~Another great entry in this book.
Have you read it?
I would have never known of it..if not for a friend.
Sharing books is a good thing.
Do it~.If you can..if you have the opportunity..I know many people do~It's just such a nice way of gently sharing your likes..

A poem taken from this book~


I have lost my smile,
but don't worry.
The dandelion has it.






I also just read.. Those Who Save Us..and enjoyed it..and The Happiness Project..that my daughter lent me..That too was enjoyable..and has great food for thought..at first I thought it may be better suited for younger people:) But there are sage words for every age...~
I gave Those Who Save Us to someone..and now my other daughter will be reading The Happiness Project..
I read Room..and although there are great reviews..the book is sad and haunting.. sometimes that can be interesting.. but I found it too sad.That one went to one daughter now too..

The Forgotten Garden..was read also and I expected more..I love to be excited by a book... to want to turn every page in anticipation..like Sarah's Key..
Oh..Secret Daughter too I just read..from my daughter.... that was really good:)

Some different books too..like The Brain that Changes Itself.. excellent..and My Stroke of Insight..another wonderful book~
Comes in waves when I read:) There is a Kindle in our family now..and so far my daughter really enjoys it..
I picked it up..held it and it's more enjoyable than I imagined.
I wonder if I would miss the pages? It's light..compact bright enough to read in daylight..
I was impressed.
I know I am late to talk about Kindle..I remember recommending it to my friend..a great reader..many moons ago... but never considered one seriously for myself yet..
Time will tell~
Do any of you own one? And do you enjoy it?
Do you miss holding a paperback..or a hardcover?
