  1. That is a very nice and very fitting painting.

    I think that there is a lot of truth in the quotation. That is how I feel when starting a book.

  2. Reading has certainly become more of an escape for me these days. One day I hope we are able to board an actual train again. But books will work in the meantime.

  10. I love the colors on this painting. It's very striking.

    Agree with the quote, 100%, although when it comes to train rides, some are exciting, some are boring, some are terrifying ...
