The first Saturday in November is set aside as Book Lover’s Day. And, man oh man, am I a book lover. I love reading and writing, as these posts can attest. And today, I am grateful for books. They open our mind (the Metal Element), give direction to our body (the Earth Element), feed our soul (the Fire Element), elevate our spirit (the Wood Element), and nourish our aura (the Water Element). Books allow us to see new probabilities, experience empathy, learn new ways and grow toward enlightenment. Through books we are able to share our experiences, lessen our sorrows, build new ways of moving forward, and release our fears. All from books. Wow. What a wonderful world. Love and Light!
