080129 | My past in the present

My 19-month-old daughter Sophie pulled this bookmark out of a book on the shelf recently. It’s from a bookstore I worked at fresh out of college in ‘93. I don’t know which book she pulled it out of. She just walked over and held it up to me as if she knew I would want or need it.
The phrase I wrote on the bookmark:
…walked with a stagger of experience…
I don’t recall what book the quote is from. The phrase, however, has just as much punch for me as it did back then.
Those days I noted the phrase in a bookmark as I read the book. Today, I scan the bookmark with the phrase on it and post it on my blog.
