Morga avrebbe voluto abbracciarlo forte e sciogliersi in un pianto liberatorio ma si trattenne. Yhari le prese le mani e le strinse con affetto. <<Sei bellissima anche quando ti arrabbi.>>
Vicini uno all'altra, illuminati dai lampioni, si guardarono negli occhi e l'immensità di un sentimento forte e nascente li avvolse in un alone di energia calda e amorevole.
Cit.“Morga la Maga del Vento”

Henry David Thoreau - Walking
1862
When many people profess their love of the wilderness and of wild, an important question needs to be asked: Of which wilderness are they talking about? That you go to a night club and party doesn’t make you “wild”. To camp out in the wilderness with all the commodities of our time’s technology still means you are in civil society. You just had a change of scenery. A picnic in a forest can be very nice, a hike can be refreshing, but are you really in the wild? The wild in Thoreau’s famous essay Walking is akin to that Holy Land that we might try and reach. There are those who go on strolls, and there are those who go on quests. The quest for Thoreau is to return to that wilderness, that unsocietal wilderness as it is the ultimate good. That wild isn’t merely a place outside of modern society, but it is a whole process of making nature our teacher. To Thoreau, as much as modern society brought its own wonders, it will end up subduing us. That doesn’t mean that we should suddenly forsake artificial society, but our model of building ourselves and of understanding the world must be in this quest for the wild, this untamed Holy Land, and not in the tame society. So the next time you go out for a long or hike, ask yourself why are you doing this? What is your goal? If it’s just mere exercise, then it’s not this quest of which Thoreau speaks. So check this essay out the next before you take a hike. Maybe you’ll see a huge difference between walking and going on a quest.

I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, Maya Angelou
This is the first novel I’ve read by Maya Angelou but definitely not the last. Angelou has a gift, one that allows her to pluck her readers out of reality and drop them in between the pages. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings is one of Angelou’s seven autobiographies describing her life from 3 to 16. She describes her upbringing in Stamps, Arkansas with her grandmother, Uncle, and brother, and her complicated relation with her divorced parents. Her life story is truly captivating and full of life-lessons, heart-ache, and revelations.
All in all this book was an easy read and the plot was seamless. I’d give it a 4 out of 5. I definitely look forward to reading more of her works in the future.
0Después de un fin de semana de obras en casa ¡he vuelto! 😂
En serio ¿qué pasa con las obras en este país que nunca quedan bien a la primera? 😖 Hemos cambiado cuatro ventanas y una está mal y tienen que volver a colocarla, dentro de cuatro o cinco semana claro 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
En fin… dejemos la limpieza y los cabreos y centrémonos en algo más agradable como Cardan 😍
Vuestro fin de semana habrá sido mucho mejor ¿verdad? 😂

What do you think is the best snack to have whilst reading? I usually go for something sweet, mostly cake or biscuits.

All my library books 📚 I love the library. I don’t like owning many physical books and I try to only own books I absolutely love. The library allows me to do that and still read new releases! I also get a lot of library ebooks for my kindle
