“Life is always surprising us-not by its rich, seething layer of bestial refuse- but by the bright, healthy and creative human powers of goodness that are for ever forcing their way up through it. It is those powers that awaken our indestructible hope that a brighter, better and more humane life will once again be reborn.“

Maxim Gorky

I don‘t have this book with me since I‘m at the cabin for the weekend, but THIS was my favorite book as a kid! I still have it and I can‘t even begin to guess how many times I‘ve read it. I remember getting it used from some kind of sale and I hope someday when I have a baby I can share it with them. ❤️ #childhoodbook #24in48 @24in48

My passport photo when I was two. And yes one could smile on a passport photo back in 1982.

Jess7 I was able to smile on my passport in 2011, but not when I retook after changing to my married name in 2013. 7y

LibrarianRyan @Leigh0906 thank you. I have similar but smaller versions in the kitchen. I tried to find something different and the dining room was too big but they came out with a small version and I said sold. 7y

A very satisfying read with many beautiful proses, that left me with gamut of emotions.

The greatest gift to Alexei, other than the life itself, is his grandmother. As a reader, i can feel her love, warmth and comfort. The short stories she told to Alexei live until now, feeding million thoughts and souls, including mine.
