I do not want to hold her close to this earth with my sorrow,i let her laugh her startles laughter, hear her wry humor.

S 'If i could save time in a bottle'.the final words, :when all i really wanted was a little more time.īut she did give me this book, and i keep it with pleasure, tender endearing moments.i read it in my sisters voice, and laugh through those tears which still come. This book first entered my life as my sister was leaving hers.The Cancers had taken so much away from her, her best pleasure was in reading the books she had finally found time for. A groundbreaking work when it was first published, this book has retained its freshness as it has been rediscovered by generations of readers and is no less current today. With great wisdom and insight she describes the shifting shapes of relationships and marriage, presenting a vision of a life lived in enduring and evolving partnership. A mother of five and professional writer, she casts an unsentimental eye at the trappings of modern life that threaten to overwhelm us - the timesaving gadgets that complicate our lives, the overcommitments that take us from our families - and by recording her own thoughts in a brief escape from her everyday demands, she guides her readers to find a space for contemplation and creativity in their own lives. Drawing inspiration from the the shells on the shore, Lindbergh's musings on the shape of a woman's life will bring new understanding to readers, male and family, at any stage of life.

In this inimitable classic, Anne Morrow Lindbergh shares her meditations on youth and age, love and marriage, peace, solitude, and contentment during a brief vacation by the sea.
