I know I've talked about books and the
sheer joy of reading from time to time,
but then Maria Kondo came out with,
"Ideally, keep less than 30 books."
Normally, I would think it a meme, but
Maria Kondo does address space issues
after all. I've been accused of loving my
books more than people . . . well, that
might be true in some cases, but not
most. I've carried mine from Colorado to
Nebraska, to Mexico, to Colorado again.
. . . and I'm the one that old adage was
written for, "A fool is he who loaneth a
book; more of a fool is he who giveth it
back!" This might just be the time to
confess, yes, I do have over 6,000 books
and a library all my own . . . but that's
nothing; I used to have 8,000 plus, but
I'm paring down! Hey, anyone want to
loan me a book?
the joys of reading
no library large enough
a gift of the gods
