I’m not going to complain about opulence at the mall today. Instead, I’m sticking to my own opulence in the form of books. What to do? This morning I started sorting in the AR (angel room). Just a beginning and a rather slow one because I had to sit down and peruse each book before deciding what to do with it. Very nuanced choices, I must say.
Pile # 1: Get rid of, “Out, out, out,” as my sister would say. But where to? Give it to my daughter to sell; my minister friends; other friends; the put-and-take; church fair; or god forbid, throw it in the trash because the book has too many personal markings and comments.
Pile # 2: Back on the shelves. But which one? Read right now; read soon; read eventually (only if I live to be 101); use as a possible reference for this blog; keep for sentimental reasons.
Right now I’ve taken a break to sit outside and read. My choice: Marsha Sinetar’s A Way Without Words: A Guide for Spiritually Emerging Adults. Well, that’s me, always emerging.
