I dreamed I called you on the telephone. But you were sick and would not answer. The waste of my love goes on this way. Trying to save you from yourself. I have always wondered about the left-over. Energy, the way water goes rushing down a hill. Long after the rains have stopped. Or the fire you want to go to bed from. But cannot leave, burning-down but not burnt-down. The red coals more extreme, more curious. In their flashing and dying. Than you wish they were.

I am an Australian librarian, author, presenter and facilitator who believes that libraries are about connection, recreation, wisdom, freedom and fun. Libraries can remain relevant if we keep our connection with our communities and work out how to serve them best.

Hand painted Life by Kathryn Greenwald. We each hand paint our lives with the things that make us most happy. Thursday, October 11, 2012. Wednesday, October 10, 2012. Super cute new tea towel found at my Sweet Bohemian Life. You will love the retro look of this fall inspired design. We all need to give pause and give thanks for the abundance in our lives.
