You guys. It's Monday. Hope the weekend provided a much needed break! As declared last week, completing just one of my weekend goals would be a victory. Well, consider me victorious!
I finally finished Cheryl Strayed's Tiny Beautiful Things. Such a sharp, witty, sometimes painful, and very real read. Cheryl is so empathetic, fearless, open and honest about who she is, her life, and journey -- and gives "pitch-perfect" personal advice like no one's business. Plus, I also fell in love with her titles: "The Future Has an Ancient Heart," "Hell Is Other People's Boyfriends," "The Empty Bowl," "You Don't Have to be Broken for Me," and "The Ghost Ship That Didn't Carry Us." I look forward to indulging in her other acclaimed works, Torch and Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail. And soon! Sometimes, there's nothing better than a cozy reading session with the husband and kitties. If knowledge is power, then words are sexy!
