I didn’t grow up with many books but enough to know that they have the power to expand minds and change lives.
As such, I date a lot of my books. In 1985, I came to possess “The Diary of Anne Frank“.
I cannot remember if it was a gift or if I had bought it myself. Today I still have that book.
Although I have a patchy recollection of its contents, I can still hear and feel the indomitable spirit of this young girl.
In our world today, not many can give us the gift of generous listening. But there is still a place where everything we wish to say can be heard.
Give yourself the precious gift of writing down your thoughts, hopes and dreams on paper. It’s an intimate way of meeting yourself honestly, fully and openly.
“I can shake off everything as I write;
my sorrows disappear,
my courage
is reborn.”
– Anne Frank
