Welcome to Litsy!

Up next for book club, and my current read. #FirstSaturdayReaders

Morning coffee #TOTD from Gentle Reminders:
You deserve
to give yourself tenderness
any time you wish
#coffeeandbooks #cupsandsaucers

Another theme of this book is family ties. For the Quinn siblings life has always been complicated. Especially because of their mother Rozelle. Will they be able to overcome everything that they have gone through to break generational trauma?

Have a great week. 🌞

Yeah, my score isn‘t much better as we move forward in time, but here are three out of the 6/100 that I read.
1. I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings
2. So Long a Letter
3. Fear of Flying

Of all the needs (there are none imaginary) a lonely child has, the one that must be satisfied, if there is going to be hope and a hope of wholeness, is the unshaking need for an unshakable God.

True, I am part Byrd
And yet I struggle to fly
My wings often clipped

My maternal grandparents last name was Byrd.
My first tattoo was of a bird.
I often think of the tagged Maya Angelou‘s poem.
