They had shown her the way. And she was able to look at them as she readied herself for the life everlasting that she knew awaited her. What comfort could be gained from staring at my lifeless e-reader?"

Reading this part, makes me regret I gave away LOTS of books, cleaning out my bookshelves, actually a whole bookcase. Sometimes I think, wish I still had them. Looking at every book, every one had a memory.

I have been getting rid of my out-of-date technical and reference books, but will likely never give up my favorites/classics/etc.
