The Books on My Shelf


Sometimes I wonder.
I wonder about the books on my shelf.
What do they say about me?
I think they say that I am:
a goal maker,
a dreamer,
a planner,
a love searcher,
a hope finder,
a Christ seeker,
a learner,
an explorer,
a quote collector.

Somedays I wonder.
I wonder about little hands touching these books I've had for years.
Asking questions about these books.
Like, where they came from.
Or how many times I've read them.
Or why there are no pictures.
I imagine I will hold those little inquisitors very close and tell them stories I've known for years.

And in do time, the books on their shelves will tell them who they are.
