Too
Many Books… No Such Thing
Are there ever too many books? I don’t think so.
As much as I enjoy the practicality and freedom of the
Kindle and the iPad, nothing beats the beauty of the book.
It truly is a case of the more the merrier.
I am a committed reader… and I have always believed that
there is never loneliness or boredom with a good book around.
Characters and plots become part of my live and it’s sad
when their tale is told. Like fare-welling a best friend.
I remember a visit to Zurich… I stayed in a hotel that
boasted 33,000 books.
The dining room was lined floor to ceiling with books. Worn and loved not precious or perfect with
matching bindings. Words in all
languages filled and overflowed the space it was quite breathtaking.
The thought of all that creativity, knowledge and passion in
one space was quite something.
We can never read enough and there is no such thing as too
many books.

An old
Brewery turned into a hotel by the architect Althammer Hochuli. All i can say
this hotel clearly knows how to ensure a relaxing stay for its guests… perfect!)
And now, here we are, another year past, wind stormed off the
calendar, with nary a moment shared. May
you live in joy, warmth, love, good health and gratitude in the coming days and may we all sleep in heavenly peace.
