Thursday Thoughts...

"People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading". 

Logan Pearsall

I can't honestly express how much this one resonates with me! I am sitting here almost cry-laughing at it and nodding enthusiastically to myself.

We are just back from another mini-break. We headed to Maroochy River once more, to our favourite haunt with the intention to do nothing more than sit and read, look up and see what the water and the light were doing, then head back down and read some more.  
The routine is up and brekky; read, then wander off on a visit, explore or shop, back for lunch, read, dinner, read, head to bed, read.

Indeed, people might say life the life is this thing - but reading, well it pretty much does it for me!


A stunning sunset on Tuesday night.

  1. being away from the quotidian tasks that endlessly demand attention ... having the luxury of time to just immerse oneself into a book, then look out into the distance whilst contemplating what one has just read ... what bliss ... especially when the universe treats you to a scene like this!

    1. Bliss is the word that describes it for me - an indulgence, a gift and an absolute pleasure. Could have posted a series o shots - all so different as the tide comes in a and out and the light changes but this one was spectacular.

    1. It was the best Mo. We have never stayed so high and it really added something else to the vista. So serene and so quiet and so magical...
