Inspired by a book

I needed something to read today. I chose an old favorite: Thendara House by Maroin Zimmer Bradley. It is about a group of women who chose to be together as independent women promising to make their own choices about their lives. I don't remember when I first read this series, but I have read it several times. Today I needed that reminder about making ones own choices. One reason is that too often I feel that since I have few outside commitments, I arrange my activities according to others' wishes. Others may not think so, but sometimes I do.

As I realize this (once again), I can work on my attitude and actions. Changing that attitude isn't easy. I will try. My choices for the fall: museum work, Warren Village work, do some serious reading, enjoy Estes, check out the possibility of doing some history work for the church, get back to an exercise routine, enjoy cooking, enjoy friends, and be a generous spirit.
