Books

Posted by Michael Rawluk (Williams Lake, BC, Canada) on 30 November 2006 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

Why is it that books become more attractive with age. If you look at a new book, you see something that is merely functional. Something to read. To entertain or inform.

But a book with some age? It becomes a thing of beauty. The slightly yellowing pages that may curl slightly contain their own beauty apart from what they may contain.

Are people like that? Do we gain a beauty with age?

Maybe we should be like books. Good books get preserved and have the chance to get old. Books with nothing to say are lost.

Maybe that would give us the impetus to be good. Be good so that we can have the chance to get old.

I appreciate your comments and constructive criticism.
