About meI will pretty much read anything if it stands still long enough.
About my libraryThis list will eventually include everything that my husband and I have at our house. I still have quite a few bookcases to go through. A large chunk of our library is fantasy/sci-fi. We also have a large number of science books and textbooks.

I am completely new to this site. Is it ok to book swap with members? I am wanting to purchase Marie Louise Von Franz, Alchemical Active Imagination. (revised Edition). If you are willing to book swap then I offer the following two books to you in exchange for the one Von Franz text:
Book Title: The Gnostic Jung and the Seven Sermons to the Dead
Author: Stephan A. Hoeller
Book Title: Jung and the Story of our Time
Author: Laurens Van Der Post
Best Wishes

(An historic address given by
Chief Seattle)
Teach your children what we have taught our children:
that the earth is our true mother.
Whatever happens to the earth, happens to the children of the earth.
If people spit on the ground, they spit on themselves.
We know:
the earth does not belong to people, but people belong to the earth.
We know:
everything is joined together in some way, like the blood that runs through a family.
Whatever happens to the earth, happens to the children of the earth.
We did not weave the web of life; we are just a strand in it.
Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves.
