I made it to NYC! I woke up in the middle of the night and was wondering if I would be able to go. So thankful that I was able to!
I read 70 pages of St Silouan the Athonite. On page 381 now. It is a 500 page book 📖 and I am taking notes usually from every page. So it takes me a while. It's that sort of book. Thoughtful, packed with wisdom.... I am using it for my writing project and am seeing lots of things that connect to it. So I make notes about that as well. I am also learning a lot personally from this book.
I am very thankful that I had a day to spend reading it! If I am home I get distracted by other things so a full day (10 to 5) reading was a real blessing.
We have DV church tomorrow. I would love to go back to NYC Thursday but we shall see.
I do hope finishing my reading 📚 of this book in the next week.
It's a deep book but also very beautiful.
My library NYC days are some of my favourite days.
May God have mercy on us 🙏
love our pen case! envious of your NYC trip and a day spent reading all day sounds lovely!! I'm glad you were able to go!
ReplyDeleteI can see how trying to get a few hours of reading in at home, surrounded by a dozen tasks you can't help but see, distract you. Lovely that you have the chance to go to NYC. I hope Thursday will work out for you.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful!
