If I can believe Wikipedia then Tonbo means dragonfly in Japanese. It also is a symbol of courage. Today I thought a lot about courage. Courage on the part of the first responders during 9/11 ten years ago. Courage of a young father who recently lost his daughter. Courage of that young daughter as she fought valiantly against a debilitating disease.
Find your courage.
So, I got out of work this morning and went to my car. the windshield was covered with droplets of water and when I put my phone into the holder it accidentally snapped this photo. I liked how it looked and so I decided to keep it for today’s photo. It just looks really cool in a frosted sort of way.
A quiet day of sleep, until everyone mowed their lawns. I can’t fault anyone for that but If I’d been asleep I’d probably not heard anything. I keep trying to figure out the best way to get to sleep and stay asleep. I read a little to get myself to fall asleep and try and read again. Sometimes I just keep reading and sometimes I can actually get back to sleep.
I’m on the last three books in the Sword of Truth series. I just finished Naked Empire and started Chainfire. These are by Terry Goodkind.
