"A book is not only a friend, it makes friends for you. When you have possessed a book with mind and spirit, you are enriched. But when you pass it on you are enriched threefold." - Henry Miller, The Books In My Life (1969)

That's realy interesting. I have such a hard time letting go of my books. I don't know if I could do it. Although, if I were to find one of those books, I'd certainly pass it on.

Yeah, me, too. It's why this culling's such a struggle. But if'n I'm gonna have to move, it'll be far easier if'n there're fewer books. Also gonna cull other stuff which'll be easy emotionally even if harder to make 'em go away (wedding china & crystal - finding someone who wants 'em and packing 'em - and mucho Magic cards - sorting out the rares & uncommons & determining worth of the former blah blah blah). I'm also gonna have a mess of stuff for the next clothing exhchange. Hell, mebbe I'll even hold one 'cause I always seem to be outta town when they take place.

Hope all goes well w/you & yours!

You are moving?

Eventually. Not sure when or to where though. Much of life's currently up in the air.
