joy

There are books that I keep around and pick up every now and then, often in the chill after a hard task finished, and I read a bit until there is something that i want to stop and chew on for a while. This book took me months to read because I was always finding something to chew on, something worth pondering, something to integrate into the being-ness of living.

I highly recommend David George Haskell's Sounds Wild and Broken if you are a thinker, someone who likes to integrate thoughts and sentences into your being. A human aware that you are just a tiny speck in a large world that is mostly inhabited by other non-human beings. Go on. Set this by your bedside, or alongside your favorite chair, with a coaster for your mug or pint, your reading glasses, and a comfy something or another. Sink into it, over time, and let these words change you.
