Once upon a Time

What book could you read over and over again?

Going from an avid reader and devouring books, I became a non-reader. It happened organically, too. It wasn’t planned. So, the idea I may re-read something? Nah, that’s not going to happen anytime soon.

My lifestyle has predicted I would not be granted the luxury of being a hoarder, should I wish to be one.

I’ve culled my book collection so many times, I’ve lost count. Leaving me a small pile of read and unread.

Amongst the ‘yet to read’ is a book given to me at Christmas by a thoughtful and lovely friend- Thank you, Trish. Maybe she ( a reader)  thought the subject would get me back into it? And she would be right, except for one thing, I wondered if the story would make me cry.

If a movie starts and I get the feeling it won’t end well for the animal prominently portrayed, I will turn it off immediately. It’s just who I am.

The book I have at the very top of the list to begin is The Wisdom Of Old Dogs. Lessons in life, love, and friendship. By Elli H Radinger.

Ironically, I thought i could get back into reading when Patch was no longer sharing my life, I would have all those extra hours in my day, not walking with him. But it maybe the pages would be wet with tears?.
