Books and Rituals
Prompt: What books are on your winter reading list?

---

The books I want to read, if put on a long list, would probably go around the earth’s circumference a couple of times.

At this point, I only know month by month the number of books I'll read because in Minja’s group, we each pledge to read a number of books at the beginning of the month, but I have more than six thousand books in Kindle and not enough lifetime left to read them. *Laugh*

What I am now reading and enjoying very much is the Orphan of the Salt Winds by Elizabeth Brooks.

What I have in mind in the near future are:

A couple of books by Anne Rice about Lestat
Placebo by Joe Dispenza
The Best of Adam Sharp by Graeme Simsion
Lights on the Sea by Miquel Reina
Unbreakable Mind by Matthew Piper
CRED by Ben Parris our Ŧĥē Beŋ
The Shadow Writer by Eliza Maxwell
Dragon’s Teeth by Upton Sinclair

It wouldn’t be a surprise if I only read a few of the books above and turned to other books instead, as I usually do.

Day 2023 October 16, 2019

Prompt: "I remind myself once again that there is time, plenty of it, for favored rituals if you simply decide there is time. How do you feel about rituals?

Everyone has rituals when you think of it, especially for taking care of our bodies and our homes. That is a given.

Then I have rituals such as reading in bed while listening to soft music before going to sleep. That is my most favorite downtime.

Writing every day is a ritual, too. I try to get in some writing be it in my blog, a notebook, or something else.

Making lists for just about anything is a habit, too. I couldn’t live without my lists.

Checking on friends mostly online is another ritual.

I have other hobbies and things that I do but intermittently and if needed
.
I guess I could do other things, too, but every single moment of my day is taken.
