Purpose | Sue Fitzmaurice

#WordOfTheYear
@IndoorDame

So I posted the word PURPOSE as my #wordoftheyear, and today this quote showed up in my daily Mutts comics email. I think the universe might be trying to tell me something. I've now combined the two and will strive to make happiness my purpose--even in the simplest daily activities. 🖤💙🖤

IndoorDame I had no idea Aristotle had already let us in on the Purpose of Life. Clearly humans don‘t pay attention very well. Love this as your direction for 2024 though! 🧡 14mo

dabbe @IndoorDame Ain't that the truth! Good ol' Aristotle! #whoknew 🖤💙🖤 14mo

Bookwormjillk Typical freaking Casaubon. Doesn‘t care about Dodo until he sees her not completely miserable with his cousin. (edited) 2y

TheBookHippie @Bookwormjillk He is most certainly a narcissist…😝 2y

Clare-Dragonfly Yeah, he sees her as a possession he can keep control of. 2y

Aimeesue Casaubon. Hoo boy. 🙄 2y

CoffeeNBooks Uggh. Casaubon is even worse than I thought. Poor Dodo- she's so opinionated about so many things, yet so ill-prepared for so many things in life. 2y

MoonWitch94 UGH! 😒 2y

Bklover I‘m with you- I want a scandal! 2y

kspenmoll Agree with you all- Casaubon was so dismissive of Dodo & a narcissist on their honeymoon- she was trying to be a good wife despite realizing her dream of being his helpmate with his “book” was not to be…. @Bookwormjillk @TheBookHippie @Aimeesue @CoffeeNBooks @Clare-Dragonfly @MoonWitch94 @Bklover 2y

CogsOfEncouragement My heart broke for her. So young, and so stuck with no one to blame but herself. 2y

We Have Always Lived in the Castle (Deluxe) | Shirley Jackson

pick

Another haunting story where the house is an integral part (character) of the story. Merricat and Constance are bigger introverts than I am! #whoknew And, to top it off, one's a murderer! Or is she? The stuff that hauntings are made for.“

Favorite Quote: “I'm going to put death in all their food and watch them die.“

I went ahead and finished this Thanksgiving morning while my husband was still sleeping. It turns out he‘s also sarcastic, kind, and a good judge of character. #whoknew #PemberLittens #bookriotquiz

Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time: A Reader's Companion | Stephen W. Hawking

I only listen to 2 podcasts: Skeptoid and Lexicon Valley. The #Booked2019 prompt #relatedtoapodcast really threw me so, Google to the rescue! Apparently, Joe Rogan refers to an awful lot of books in his podcast! Lol, if anyone's stuck like I am, here's a link to the Joe Rogan Experience Library:

Cinfhen Thanks for sharing!! Sorry this prompt threw you!!! You know the Littens will always catch you❤️ 6y

IamIamIam @Cinfhen Omigosh, don't be sorry! I couldn't be happier!!! I tend to fall in a rut and this is really pushing me in directions I wouldn't go in! Not to mention that research is half the fun and I'm just adding a bunch of books to #mountTBR! 😂💗 6y

Kimberlone Overdue is a really great bookish podcast. The hosts have great banter. And I recommend Annotated by @bookriot - which tell really interesting book related stories. 6y

IamIamIam @Kimberlone Thanks so much for the recommendation!! I'll definitely check it out! 😁 6y

The Sonnets and Narrative Poems | William Shakespeare

Sonnet 136

Oh here we go again!!! Shakespeare has seriously taken a dirty turn in this series. I knew Shakespeare was (not so) secretly a dirty old man, but he‘s on a roll here.

#shakespeare #sonnets #shakespeareansonnet #sonnet136 #poetry #will #whoknew

jenniferw88 If you thought this is bad, the rudest verse in a poem I have found so far is in William Blake... wait a few minutes & I'll post the quote! 😂😂😂 6y

GingerAntics Now every time I see the word “will” in anything Shakespearean, I‘m going to be looking for the double entendre. 6y

batsy I guess Will is really making his will known 😳😂 6y

GingerAntics @batsy 🤣🤣🤣 6y
