When the Day of Judgment dawns and people, great and small, come marching in to receive their heavenly rewards, the Almighty will gaze upon the mere bookworms and say to Peter, "€œLook, these need no reward. We have nothing to give them. They have loved reading."

Virginia Woolf wrote that in one of her letters. Isn't it perfect?

Scandalising the books like that! I hope there were no childrens titles around, young lady! Though literature and nudity did rather go hand-in-hand with the Bloomsbury Group.smile

I need to hire you to provide some order to my books. I"ve got thousands and have only a vague sense of order about them. It comes down to the choice between reading and giving them order and the latter always loses. Nice pictures btw.

I am not crazy about this Almighty's imagination - end of time is the end of reading ? Are there no books in heaven ? Let us hope so - to have this sublime addiction and no material - sounds Hell ? Maybe that is the destination for some Christian readers ? As anyone with this addiction knows - knowledge is a never completed building - built on observation and study. I am a sceptic - I believe in doubt as a way to knowing something - but I don't eat the pages.

Thr photos are wonderful - I will be framing them this weekend !

Nice to know that there is some reward for being a Bookworm.
Are you mildly amused or sad for them, when someone asks:
"you read all of those books?"?
We're almost to the point of collapseing into the Tarn under the
weight of the Library.eeekbiggrin
Most surreal, the Daffoildills have beat the Crocus to blooming,
weeks early for either of them. The current big worry for this
area is; now that the Apple trees have blossomed will there be a frost,
if so minimal Apple harvest this Fall.
Stay creative.biggrin

I hope it is not the kind of reading with a lecturn and pitcher of water ?
I prefer the thought of under a tree, head in your lap - as you read for me ?
I would do the same for you - if your leg or voice gets tired.
That sounds heaven-like to me !

graceful day,
lovely AnnaLee !
