through my eyes...: One day...

'You know your reading a good book when your a little sad to begin the last chapter!'

There is absolutely nothing more amazing than the feeling of driving home from an absolutely insane day at work, filled to overflowing with the excitement and anticipation of getting home to an incredible book. I have had so many days where I have been tempted to leave the 'to do' list and find a quiet little space to get lost in the magical words of a stunning novel or autobiography! :)

So on my way home from work the other day, sitting in my car thinking about getting home to finally finish the last few pages of 'my best friends daughter'... I had an idea.

One day... I will find a small, run down little building in a little town somewhere local. Maybe a church with big, old, rustic doors. A building that is so rich in history, full of life and stories and culture. It will have a warm feel about it and a big open fire place in the centre of the feature wall to warm up any bitter signs of winter!

I'll cover it's big high walls with the most amazing books! Books of love and loss and hope and truth. Books to get lost in! Books that the people love!!!

I'll put pillow filled cosy corners wherever theres space, little tables to rest your warm coffee or tea or chai or hot chocolate on.

A place to relax, kick off your shoes, leave your stresses at the door and get lost in a good old book with the melodies of acoustic artists like Azure Ray and Adele comforting you in the background. A place to come for quiet time, a place to study if you need? A place where phones must be on vibrate. A place you can share stories, dreams and catch ups with friends in a peaceful, hassle free environment. A place you can make your own! :)

I'm excited...

Its easy now to download and read from a computer screen... But there's something special about holding it in your hands. Or maybe that's just me!

I don't want people to forget the beauty of books! There yellow stained pages from years and years of providing a 'home away from home' for the people who journeyed it.

Anyway... it WILL happen! :) so watch this space bloggers... there will be an invite coming your way when my finances decided to match my visions :)

All in God's timing!

For now I'm happy dreaming...
