This introduces a series on reading.\u00a0 Among other things, I will share a picture of one of my favorite places to read.\u00a0 In no clear order, one of my favorite places is The New York Public Library in the very room you see before you. I have read there on various occasions.\u00a0 I still fondly recall the elderly woman taking copious notes from an art history book.\u00a0 Wonderful!<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

My own reading is summarized by the acrostic GROWTH.<\/strong><\/p>\n

G: Greats which right now is a reread of The Taming of the Shrew <\/i>by Mr. Shakespeare.\u00a0 And I did not start reading Shakespeare until my early forties.\u00a0 There is hope for anyone!<\/strong><\/p>\n

T: Teaching preparation which can be just about anything.<\/strong><\/p>\n

H: History which I am regularly reading.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
