When we nowadays hear or read the word bookmark, we usually think of it in relation with an Browser on our computers and mobilephones for our visit in the world wide web. But there used to be a time when this word was standing for use only for books. And this is how our tiny little helpers still use it in their little world. A nice Dragon brass bookmark is a great place for my tiny friend to sit down, relax and read for a little while. :)

MACRO MONDAYS 'Bookmark' theme
My mothers bookmark and her favourite psalm. The bible belonged to my great, great grandfather who was born in 1817 and married in 1842, exactly 100 years before I arrived.
Souvent aussi, il part à vélo dans la campagne. Il pédale de toutes ses forces, emplissant ses poumons de la saveur de l'éternité. L'éternité de l'enfance est une éternité brève, mais il ne le sait pas encore; le paysage défile. [M. H.]
Why do we love reading books? Is it because we can explore other worlds or because through them we can escape our own?
Maybe we just like that we can always bookmark a page and return to it anytime we want...
Life doesn't give us this... life is an adventure we cannot pause...
We can just live, learn from experiences, have fun as much as we can... and hope to enrich this adventure we call life.
A really old bookmark in a small bible. Sophia was my Gt.Gt. Grandmother.
Macro Mondays bookmark theme.
Les empereurs romains n’oubliaient surtout pas de prendre le titre de Tribun du peuple, parce que cet office était tenu pour saint et sacré ; établi pour la défense et la protection du peuple, il jouissait d’une haute faveur dans l’État. Ils s’assuraient par ce moyen que le peuple se fierait mieux à eux, comme s’il lui suffisait d’entendre ce nom, sans avoir besoin d’en sentir les effets.
Mais ils ne font guère mieux ceux d’aujourd’hui qui, avant de commettre leurs crimes les plus graves, les font toujours précéder de quelques jolis discours sur le bien public et le soulagement des malheureux. On connaît la formule dont ils font si finement usage ; mais peut-on parler de finesse là où il y a tant d’impudence ?
[E. de la B.]
Normally I use the most diverse things as markers, such as leaves, dried flowers, dry branches, curious cardboard, spikes, rulers, in short, anything that occurs to me at the moment and that I have close to me...
For Macro Mondays. This was the first bookmark I thought of when reading the theme for this week, but could I find it? Having looked for it every day I eventually rediscovered it on Sunday, just in time! I don't think I have ever used it as a bookmark - I'm far too impatient to feed the pages carefully through the coils and so I usually use any piece of paper lying to hand. The coils seem to have been fiddled with and stretched so needs to be placed in a heavy book again.
