word for thought....

Hello to all interested:

Today's word for thought is cynosure. It is an object that serves as a focal point of attention and admiration.  

Your practice of the word for today could be .... As she entered the auditorium, the valedictorian felt herself the cynosure of every eye in the room. Then, she delivered her speech that would affect a generation.
HAVE FUN WITH THIS ONE!  Maybe take a picture of someone enacting this OR you could take the stage and be the actor....

On a different note, I am in the midst of reading an absolutely, can't put it down type of book. It was a book recommended by my book club. For all you avid readers, please borrow or buy The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows.

It's a compilation of letters - a correspondence going on by London writers after the German Occupation. I don't want to give too much away, but you'll love it and won't be able to put it down. I received it in the mail yesterday and haven't been able to put it down, except to blog about it today.

Well enjoy the rest of your day and I will give you a word for thought another day!
