While reading this morning I ran across this post at Perspectives On…and it touched my heart. Instilling a love of reading was THE MOST IMPORTANT aspect of my 30 year teaching career!
What is your “one love?” As a writer and educator, I have to admit that the love of books and reading is at the top of my list of loves.
The above photo shows a sculpture of a woman reading in the lobby of the Sacramento State University library. I was surprised that I had not noticed her before. That is what photography will do–provide a new perspective while searching for perfect shot.
What I love about this is she is reading near the doors, as if she had just checked out her book and couldn’t wait to start reading.
“The doors to knowledge invite the love of reading.” -Terri Webster Schrandt
These are submitted for the weekly photo challenge: One Love and for Norm 2.0’s Thursday Doors. Feel free to join these photo challenges any time.
Thanks for pointing that out.

Of all the gifts that retirement has offered me so far, it’s the freedom and time to read. I have been enjoying picking up huge, fat tomes that at one time I knew I could never get through but now can. It’s luxurious.
