i love reading. College, i resent you for not allowing me to read. I miss it. I devour novels with an immense hunger. They keep me alive. Some people distract themselves from life with drugs, alcohol, sex, video games. I use books. They helpe me escape from reality. I create the scenes described in the books. I become the characters, i feel what they do, i see what they see. God, so much work and effort goes into a book. So much creativity and genuis. I admire authors of any sort. It takes so much energy and talent to write a book, even a chapter of a book. You have to create nuances for people. You have to create people, ideas, societys, scenery, places, clothing, faces, minds, personalitys....SO much responsibility.
GOD, the joys in my life,

very much so.
