Walked by this box at Cove Island Park, what, 100x? 200x? 500x? Had never seen it before. Today, I noticed.

Inspired by: “By hook or by crook, I hope that you will possess yourselves of money enough to travel and to idle, to contemplate the future or the past of the world, to dream over books and loiter at street corners and let the line of thought dip deep into the stream.” – Virginia Woolf, A Room of One’s Own (Thank you Beth @ Alive on All Channels)
- Post Title & Inspiration: Aldous Huxley: “It’s dark because you are trying too hard. Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly. Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply. Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.”
I wish there were many in my town as the library still has limited hours.
Shame….another COVID downside.
Yes NH folks can not go to VT CT or NJ or NY I think 🙁 so many students want to come home for the holidays but so not like our normal festivities. Stay safe.
I love these Little Free Libraries!
They are so cool!
I love this. My cousin in Brooklyn started one on her street.
Cool!
And this bench, Oyyy!
Once I found out about them, I started to see them in more places. It’s a great idea.
It is a great idea!
Love how a world that’s seemingly so familiar to you is revealing new delights every day, pal. Keep walking! 🙂
Truth. Thank you Lori.
I’ve seen a few in and around Chicago; they are such a delight, as is the one you shared with us in this post. Thank you, David! Cher xo
P.S. I wonder how tiny the library cards are? *okay, throwback and not that funny, but I tried!* 😉 Cher xo
Smiling. Library cards. Love that Cher.
Awh, thanks David. xo
Whoever had the idea of these little free libraries deserves a medal for kindness and thoughtfulness and many other good qualities.
So agree!
Well?? Which one did you borrow?? 😊
NONE! I move very slowly!
They’re books!! You love books!! The little library is for anyone’s perusal — just bring a book with you next time to trade out for the one you borrow, in case you find something marvelous!
OK! OK! ON IT!!!!!
You have been going in the dark, remember.
Laughing. True.
Reblogged this on It Is What It Is and commented:
Love benches … they tell stories!! And there they are … in the books!!
They do tell stories!
💞💞💞
This bench is my favourite of the morning’s slide show… And isn’t it amazing how we can walk by something hundreds of times and not see it and then one day, there it is. How long has that been there?
I love these little “libraries”.
So true!
Inspiration hides in the most unusual places….
It sure does….
We have several around our little town, and I love them.
Neat!!!!
I love these too. We have one in the next street and it gives me a sense of community, care and consideration! 🌈😊
With all of your authored books in it!!!!
Very soon hopefully!! 😊
So great to be in the company of Fame.
Ditto! Now you are a famous photographer 👏
Laughing!
So interesting how things capture our attention that were mere background or white noice before. Love this unfolding 💛
So true Val. Thank you
Love all of this, so beautiful!
It was! Thank you.
my pleasure!
little by little, you are slowing down and really seeing the world around you
I am Beth.
we have one in my neighborhood and I’m on a mission to put some good books in there – the ones there now are truly books no one wants. Great picture! MJ
I’m on the same mission MJ. Thank you.
