pretty things.

Darling, be daring

Rest is a beautiful thing. I have had time to appreciate the small things these last few days, like the still and quiet. Normally, I have no time to read a book for fun because I'm too busy catching up on reading textbooks. If I ever happen to pick up a fun read in the midst of a calmer week, I feel guilty still having more pressing items on my to-do list. But this weekend, I finished the novel The Last Summer (of You and Me). The writing was lovely and it calmed my soul to appreciate the delicate things of life. So take one day, even one hour, and be calm.
