LOSING YOURSELF IN A BOOK

Jan 26, 2023

I can truly lose my myself in the world of reading.

If you ask me what types of books I like? To be honest, if the first few pages catches hold of me – that’s me caught in the magic.

As much as it is nice to watch and enjoy a nice movie with someone – it is just as charming and captivating being in your own world with your book. I actually bring to life the characters in my head, the colours – everything.

When my mum used to send me off to bed at nine o’clock, I used to sneak my book out and read in the small nightlight till late at night ( not good for my eyes!) – but I felt like I was in another world.

I tried using Kindle but I still prefer picking up a book , I guess I am old fashioned , always will be.

Out of all the technology we have , I would still prefer to read a book.

I read a good many books for learning and self examination. But then, yeah. Novel reading (aka reading for fun) is very integrating for me, too. I love a good book that has nothing to do with reality. I, too get lost in the pages. The characters become very real to me – like extensions of my own family, if not an extension of myself. Living vicariously through story is a way to live a life much bigger than my own.

  Thank you for sharing this David.
  You worded it better than I ever could 😊
  I know what I want to say but it is when you try putting pen to paper.
