i interupt the regular scheduled programming of "again in april" to share a window from my weekend...a few sweet friends + i met at our local library to create + leave lil' love notes in books. it was soul-fun to select words that would travel to dear hearts + choose which books to place them into. so many genres to choose from + we did: childrens, cooking, health, poetry, etc. my favorite book i left one is was "are you there god? it's me, margaret." by judy blume (anyone remember that one?!)
the words we offer each other are powerful + matter so very deeply.i forever thank you for each of yours. xo
**also!**
please visit me, along with lovely others, in the kindness issue ((just out!)) of the online mag "sprout"! http://tinyurl.com/sproutmagazine

This is such a charming way to reach out to others! I work in my local library. I wonder if they would allow me to place some heartfelt messages in a few books? I'm going to ask - thank you for presenting this. xoxoxo Janet
Oh how I'd love to unknowingly pick up one of those book! I bet you guys had a blast hiding them in all those secret places :D
ohhhh, what pure awesomeness
to meet up at the library
and make the cards THERE!!!
never, ever thought of that;
so inspired!
another fresh face
for library love bombing:)
oh the possibilities......
and, yes, I so remember that book!
love to you
and your freshness,
Jennifer
one day i will turn to the future mr.faiza and say "your heart is astonishing"
and i will think of you and smile...
How wonderful.. I love it!
I often leave little notes or words of inspiration inside library books, but to meet up and do it in the library.. fabulous!
Much love to you.
What a lovely idea, it would be so uplifting to find one of these notes, I've never seen this before x
I love this !
I have left many a love note in books at the book store too. It feels like my rocks do - a little message from the Universe strat to someone's heart, love given freely, without expectations. Such a great thing to share with young people too!
Your heart is astonishing, Rachel !
Love and light to you !
oh how wonderful!
funny today i borrowed a book from the library and found a card in it, i wondered if they left it on purpose of forgot their book mark. I like it.
OH YAYYYYYYY!!!! Oh, how I LOVE this! They are sure to bring smiles to unsuspecting readers. Next up? Poetry on dollar bills. :)
Hugs and love to you. xo
You mentioned this idea ones and I found it sweet already then. Now you DID it - how wonderful! I imagine the surprise of the people in finding the little notes! And the children: look mommy look what I found in the book!
