The key word here is "trying." On the first shelf I looked through the old books and could not discard any. When I die I'll be discarded, I guess, not them. One was "Songs of the Spirit," a Quaker songbook from which I immediately started to sing, although I have no singing voice. (I was all alone). The first was Rock of Ages, and I quit singing and set the book aside to sing later.
Next was von Daniken's "In Search of Ancient Gods," and then "The Politics of Experience." All set aside to review again when I go to bed....Anyone else have that problem?
