RE: When my mind is floating

in GEMS4 years ago (edited)

Hello! Oh reading a book on a rainy day is almost mandatory, I always take books with me in my walks. You add the coffee too and then you have an amazing time with yourself!

I am so pleased to see so many people here see the beauty in the rain, see the potential in having time with yourself meditating, reading, enjoying short moments of bliss. In silence.

As I start to age, I realise I value silence and tranquility much more than I did before. I can understand why older people and wiser people retreat in the comfort of nature instead of chasing the next best thing in a crowded mall.

Nature is the best medicine. Sitting on a balcony and reading is just so beneficial that I wish more people would do it.

Have a lovely day, preferably with some rain☔😍😊

I think I’m old now. 😝 I like to listen to the chirping of birds in a quiet place. Housework does not allow me to read books. This situation really makes me sad. Everything was easier while I was single. 😔 I bought a new book. Maybe you know, Anne of Green Gables. I watched the series and I loved it. Normally I prefer the book. I hope I can enjoy the book this weekend.

Hey, you can listen to a podcast or audiobooks while doing chores. Or just a plain motivational speech on Youtube. You can always make your time more beautiful, just find new ways of adapting, I am sure you will find them.

Enjoy your book, I find it so nice that you are a little book worm like me😊I'm proud of you!

Yes, I can try podcast.

Sometimes I just watch my books. I like rearranging them. I often connect with characters in books. I cry with them, I laugh with them. Sometimes my family is kidding me. But I don't care.

I enjoy giving books. I think it is the best gift that can be given to someone. Previously my books were very valuable. But there are many poor students in my country. I am a sharer now. :)

Oh I congratulate you, this is a great initiative, to borrow books. I am sure that the right people will appreciate the gesture and actually read the books you borrow them!
