Some days, I find hope in these words. Unfortunately, most day, I doubt such a ”look” even exists...

I wear the scars that still cover my body from years of trespassers who assaulted and abused me; and although these scars will always remain, I have found a hope that has set me free.

Let love be sincere. Let love be honest. Let love be that which guides your life in Christ and towards those around you.

Libby1 “Let love be without hypocrisy... cling to what is good.” Romans 12? I remember holding on to this passage as a teenager. I think I should revisit it today. ❤️ 5y
LiteraryMind @Libby1 wonderful verse!! It's Romans 12:9. I know what you mean as for returning back to it. Nowadays, it is easy to forget keeping love sincere, and even to love in general! My prayers are with you as you continue to grow in the wise words from Paul! 5y

Interfaith dialogue is sharing the truth on a bridge of tolerance; not hatred or judgment. Even Kennedy understood that...

Fellow “Litsarians,” I humbly seek your opinion. Do you know of any law books (fictional or even historical) worth #TBR ?

The textbooks are useful...but it would be nice to read something beyond a professors required book list. 😂

Through my treatments and my pain, I have found hope and solace in losing myself in a book. Why? Because I have been able to dream, imagine, travel, grow, and love in ways I wouldn‘t have been able to before. Thank you @MrBook @BookBabe @Litsy for giving me a community that keeps me going! You truly put the “Lit” in Litsy! Praying for you! 💪🏻😊

That moment in life when you get to a certain part in your book and discover a piece of treasure that was left behind from prior owners. It wasn‘t planned or even known! Yet, I have hope that one of these days, such “letters” will be a part of history! 🙏🏻😊

They say a cluttered desk is not a good way to work. Well, I say when it‘s cluttered with books, nothing could be more perfect. 😆 and yes...this is real. 😫#SLUGradStudies #Theology

@MrBook are library desks twice as worse? 😱

MrBook 😂👏🏻🙌🏻😎👌🏻 Yes!!! Very much so. Mine's the second most organized. When my supervisor was vacating the cubicle I'm now in, it took a few days to sift through everything 😆. Stacks of papers and books and paraphernalia litter my colleagues' desks. One has enough plants to make her workspace look like a rainforest, which is really cool. Yeeeaaah, love your desk! 👌🏻👌🏻🤗 6y
LiteraryMind @MrBook haha, that sounds awesome! Especially the one about the rainforest 😄 I am glad you were able to sort through your desk afterwards! I have a long way to go haha. 6y

In a world that faces cruelty, may we not judge and become like those who start such wildfires. Instead, regardless of what it may be, may we embrace love as if it were war itself; perhaps if it were, we‘d find more life than death. #WarAndPeace #LiveLove

God Is an Englishman | R. F. Delderfield

Bailedbailed

So....I seriously thought I found a treasure when finding this at my local thrift.
The good: The beginning is wonderful, the writing is great & historically accurate, and the characters & story flows well.
The bad: After the 1st, and dare I say it, 2nd parts, it just drops. The love story happened too fast, he cheats in the middle, it got boring with business facts, and I simply lost interest. 😥 #WhatGreatMisfortune

That moment when you finish a book, look around, and realize that everyone is just carrying on doing their own thing...as though you didn‘t just experience emotional trauma at the hands of a paperback 😩. Any new suggestions for another good series?? I‘m in need of a #BookRebound.

I‘ll admit, this one brought a lot of unexpected results, particularly that the fight was not over for these poor gladers. However, a great read that will keep you going to the end; especially with the betrayal and new characters. All in all, it builds from the first one and the leads towards the exciting climax that comes in the last book. #GladersRule #DashnerArmy

Not only did Dashner keep you at the edge of the seat until the end, but he provided a great ending to the series! A lot of twists and turn and a lot of sorrow for who doesn‘t make it. However, it gets you excited and slightly in hopes that there might be a continuation! #GladersCanDream. All in all, an excellent read!

There is an odd reality that suggests we are not allowed to be respectfully honest or to ask and be curious about others or our own beliefs, traditions, etc. there is no wrong is asking. There is only wrong when we fail to do so. #BeCurious

The Maze Runner | James Dashner

As with all alternate worlds, there is a deep respect to the author in creating such a story. The story is a tad difficult due to the slang used, but the details and descriptions bring the book to life. It is more structured and flows better than the movie while leaving you curious and hopeful all the way to the end! A job well done. #GladersRule
