I really enjoyed this book. It‘s been a long time since I felt so “carried along” on the journey.

“As it says in the stone garden in Kyoto: you are here. This is now.” Reading by the fire on a Sunday afternoon is a wonderful here and now.
Adding Wiesbaden to my Frankfurt/Heidelberg literary inspired wanderlust
Reading about the Frankfurt Book Fair for the first time in this book and it‘s making me want to go! I have a group of friends from an online book group that pre-pandemic would meet up at different US book festivals. I have a friend researching in Heidelberg that I had hoped to visit while she is there. . So, who knows if the world isn‘t a shambles then, perhaps I can make this dream for October 2023!
All narratives are suspect, unreliable. The stories we tell to make sense of our lives are essentially made up. We tell these stories to protect ourselves from the existential nightmare scenario- the idea that our lives have no pattern, are going nowhere… The concept of randomness is hard to bear, so the mind scampers around to impose a structure
Another #HolidayMovie viewing, this one feels more hip than Hallmark. Sounds like fun though! #WinterGames #TeamElectricSex

It‘s always a rough start after a three day weekend. Today, I have a long list of to do‘s - with an iced latte in hand, and my notebook full of scribbled reminders I‘m well on my way and it‘s only noon! On a different note, I cracked open the new Slightly Foxed edition, ‘Ghosting‘ by Jennie Erdal last night, and it‘s a treat to read. I might try to sneak in a chapter or two before I get back to the tasks at hand this afternoon.
