Quote of the Day

Seek not happiness first; seek Christ first, and happiness shall come after. Nothing beneath the skies, and nothing above the skies, can make any man happy apart from God, search as you will. Apart from God you may make a hell, but you cannot make a heaven, do what you please. ~ C. H. Spurgeon

Snow Flower and the Secret Fan

Where we are staying there is a lovely two-tier kiddie pool in which my children cannot drown or otherwise slay themselves which means that I have been able to read. I just finished Snow Flower and the Secret Fan by Lisa See. I very much enjoyed it. It is set in the days of foot-binding and arranged marriages and is narrated by a woman in her 80s looking back at her life and her regrets. It is written beautifully and completely engaged me.
