Keeping Life Simple, Authentic And Holistic
The Story Of My Life
Books, Reading and Book Reviews, Life and Inspiration / by Corinne Rodrigues
I’m a great believer in writing daily. I may not blog every day, but I think writing every day is a habit that brings great rewards.
I’m not a very organized person – not really into lists and the like. I’ll admit that I did try! But I just couldn’t do it. But more recently, I’ve discovered the joy of creating rhythm in daily life.
Yesterday, I wrote about finding happiness in anticipation and I want to continue this a bit today. Chatting to many bloggers in the recent past, I’ve heard them say that they’ve lost the joy of blogging and that blogging is not what it used to be in the old days. And to a large extent, I agree. I also see a lack of the community that there used to be around blogging in India.
Wow!! This is so awesome!! Simply loved your expression through these book spines, Corinne!! 🙂

Hi Corinne,
Other people’s feelings and expressions hidden in the words as I see mostly 😉 Words can be of anyone but not exact feelings and expressions, no? 🙂
Cheers…

I’ve been dying to do a book spine poetry post for a while, Mayura. Ran out of words today and chose this to express myself.
Corinne Rodrigues recently posted..Taking Responsibility For Energy
Wow! This is amazing! 🙂
I would love to try this sometime .
I saw it on Shilpa Garg’s blog and remembered having seen it earlier, Akanksha. I can see myself getting addicted to this!
Corinne Rodrigues recently posted..Taking Responsibility For Energy
What a fabulous idea, Corinne. I truly agree with you. Sometimes other people can express our views and feelings better than we can. I think that it’s because we’re so involved, we can’t think objectively enough to express ourselves entirely.
Great image.
Anne recently posted..Confidence To Have Peace
Book spine poetry has been around for a while now, Anne. I’ve been itching to do it. You’re so right – we often lean on other people’s words to tell our story. Having said that, I marvel at the way you have told yours and the way you’re living it out too. ♥
Corinne Rodrigues recently posted..Taking Responsibility For Energy
Anne has put it so nicely……so true.
You should read Anne’s story sometime, Alka. I’m waiting for her to write part two. She’s a truly inspirational woman.
Corinne Rodrigues recently posted..Taking Responsibility For Energy
Great idea Corinne –
Must try the book spine thing myself.
Thanks for the inspiration

Love it Corinne! Very creative. Your selections raise my mood and make me smile. I have read some of them, and the other titles say a lot in the titles alone. Life affirming!
P.S., You have given me the idea, which I have not seen before. I have plenty of good books. I may try it.

Glad you liked it, Buddy. Book Spine Poetry is by no means my idea. I have seen it on other blogs and decided to try my hand at it. Do give it a try – it’s fun!

Makes you think of the book titles that apply to yourself….
Well done

Live, Love & Laugh is what is on the walls of our home. I do like the living loving and learning book. It takes me into our living room where the is a sign hanging above the piano my wife teaches at that reads ” To Teach is to Love”.
Great inspiration. Thanks!
Teach Jim recently posted..What will you QUIT this year to succeed?
Thanks for sharing, Jim. What a lovely sentence ‘To Teach is to Love’ is. That might inspire me to do a post someday soon!

Hello Corrine,
This is stunning. I am seeing such a post for the first time in my life and you are unique in all ways.
I will read all your articles and share my thoughts on those within the next 6 months.
That’s a personal target I have set for myself.
