It’s Fearless Friday, but I don’t feel like writing about fear. 🙂
John and I are leaving today for a couple of weeks in Zambia and Tanzania with our church and World Vision. Not to be braggy, but we kind of pride ourselves on our ability to travel light. We rarely check bags, but always use carry-ons.
The one place this proves problematic for me is with books. Now when the Kindle came out I was thrilled because I knew it would be a great resource, at least when we travel. Think of all the space we could save! 157 books in the size of less-than-one! Never mind the fact that it takes me 39 days to read just one. I’m an optimist.
John has adapted well to the Kindle and uses it all the time, but me? Well, I’m too tactile, too visual, and maybe just too remedial. I need to be able to flip back and forth, to review what I’ve read and quotes I’ve underlined. I also have this weird thing about wanting my full sized Bible with me that has all my notes and dates and underlines. I just seem to “know” it better than other Bibles. We’re old friends.
