My favourite colour is seeing you

This phrase, engraved on the walls of the Rural Library Network house, encourages visitors from different communities to feel welcome.

Our comrade Alfredo Mires engraved this phrase with love and dedication, inspired by the positive energy that our rural brothers and sisters bring with them; energy from Mother Nature and everything she nurtures.

And, ‘my favourite colour is seeing you’ is reinforced every time we see coordinators and librarians; seeing their joy, their camaraderie, their desire to move forward, their enthusiasm for organising the books they will take to their communities, the act of telling stories, sharing, enjoying reading; but above all, seeing our fellow farmers, who quietly promote reading and rescue the culture of our peoples.

Let us also echo this phrase to thank the animals: the butterflies, the birds, the kittens, who come to cheer us up and enjoy what remains of nature in this little house.

My favourite colour is seeing you. You are always welcome in this, your home.
