Simply..a wider perspective...

I enjoyed this article by Zadie Smith on Optimism and Despair from the always interesting Brain Pickings Sunday newsletter.

A hygge start to the day. So lucky to be staying home....

Thank you for the link. A very interesting article and perspective. I've placed Smith's book, Feel Free on hold at the library.

Definitely a good day to hygge from the looks of your photos. A bit more rain here this morning, but I have errands to run. Stay warm.

I had a lovely quiet day thanks Julia and still enjoying a read at Year to Clear each morning at this desk, with this view and the fire on....

This got me thinking how brain pickings articles make a perfect companion for hygee, you sooth the senses and you poke the mind... I loved the concepts of no perfectibility and incremental change, both in individuals as in humanity.

Really thought provoking wasn't it. I may have to read the book. It was a good combination today as it snowed on and off..

I haven't had a chance to read the article yet, but glad to be reminded about Brain Pickings too. A warm fire with snow outside has to be the ultimate in hygge!
