Sunday Morning Reading

The last Sunday Morning Reading column for 2023. Yet another year gone that I think collectively we’re all glad to see pass as we keep hoping for something better around the corner of the next one. There’s always hope. There’s always promise. There’s always the other side of both of those coins. So as we mark the passage of time from one year to another, here’s a short list of some good reading to share on the last day of 2023.

There wouldn’t be much to read if someone didn’t write it first. David Todd McCarty Writes Like You’re Running out of Time. Check it out and other excellent writers on Ellemeno.

I don’t know about you, but I do most of reading on the Internet these days. Anil Dash tells us That the Internet is About To Get Weird Again. Who’d a thunk it?

Time passes. Rivers run. Everything ages. Sit still and things can stagnate. Maria Popova tells us about John O’Donohue’s great book To Bless The Space Between Us: A Book of Blessings. Check out here article A Spell Against Stagnation: John O’Donohue On Beginnings.

And since we’re celebrating the passage of time, check out A Brief History of Time as told by a watchmaker by Jaq Prendergast

Here’s another piece worth your time from David Todd McCarty called Boys Don’t Cry, Men Don’t Bond. I’m in with part two. Not so much with the first. Must be an age thing.

And to close out the year and this edition of Sunday Morning Reading check out NatashaMH’s piece Writing Out of the Shadows.

Happy New Year!
