sunset


I want to say my prayers and write some new sorts of stories and make a garden and read some books and walk up the hill behind the house so I can see the sea when the weather is clear. And just sit.

That is a lovely pair of sentences I just read in A Book of Silence, by Sara Maitland, which took me forever to finish. In these last wintery days I'm looking for some new good reads ~ any suggestions?
