I definitely enjoy certain books because of the insight they bring not only into one or two characters but to humanity and its mysteries, as well.

Dear Jeannine - such loveliness in the world when you take the time to appreciate it. I want to tell the woman they don't need green pencils to draw those leaves! I love so much the idea of the tilting mirror and wonder how many mirrors are out there tilting that, in the mad busyness of life, I never see. Indeed, sometimes listeing is a "brief, taut holding on." Lovely. Thank you! xo

I know you see lots of tilting mirrors and glancing light. So glad you share some with us!

You have a wonderfully poetic way of describing this scene. Thanks for sharing it.
