Reflect some of that sunlight into your eyes with a mirror and see how safe it is.

Now I don't know what to do. I seems that I can look directly into the sun and go blind. I can look at sunlight bounced off a mirror and go blind. Just what am I supposed to read on now that I know that both direct and reflected light will blind you? |

Lesson learned. Tablets and phones are computers and computers are terrible for reading on. |

![]() I do note however, that some seem to be missing their funny bone, so no doubt are immune to my funny ways ... goes right over their head. I guess that's what I get for using subtlety ... one of my personal flaws. I'd cry about it, but I've done enough laughing for one day. ![]() |

Generally I feel (certainly of late), that I read as much as I feasibly can ... considering.
As life has a way of interfering, even if it is just tiredness through being busy. Some nights or even afternoons, I only manage to read for a few minutes before nodding off. And some days I am just so tired, I don't bother to try at all. ![]() Such is life, and short of taking drugs to stay awake (something I would not do), not much can be done about it, without somehow simplifying my life ... perhaps foolishly ... I mean, it is only reading after all, and life is about much more than that ... though for some, it rarely seems that way. ![]() Age of course, has its impact. Certainly when I was much younger, I often stayed up to the wee hours, head buried in a good book ... then off I went to work. I was clearly much more resilient then, than I am now, at 60. I also have a more mature sense of priorities, obligations and responsibilities. |
