The Sacredness of Books
In this technological age, it seems there is a tendency
to negate the value of books and reading from one held in one's hands. Perhaps my generation is showing but the pages of a
book are my friends, the path into knowledge and creativity, the world beyond my own. They are a source of creativity, inspiration
and of hope. When I receive a book, my soul is touched and my spirit sings. When I give a book I am giving a part of myself. Nothing grieves me more than
to see books packed away in storage sheds or thrown away in trash bins.A reading community is a educated community. A reading community
is a growing community. A reading community is a creative community. This is all a way of saying, Books with their words,
pages and chapters are sacred. This is an invitation to put books back on the shelves and on the tables, take them out of
storage sheds and closets, read them, talk about and share them. They will change your life and you do not risk their loss
in a technological blackout. A good book has a life that goes on and on and on. The book you read next may change your life....from
my heart.
