so, I've decided to add something new to this little blog thing I've got goin' on...
if there was only one activity I could do for the rest of my life...
it would be to read.
i love books. they are a chance to jump into someone else's mind, into someone else's world. when you open a book, your worries, your stress, your thoughts, your world just...disappears. and you are thrown into a new place, that contains new worries, new thoughts, new emotions. the characters reach out and grab you, pull you into their world.
you laugh with them.
you cry with them.
you worry when they worry.
you are happy when they are happy.
when they are troubled, or sad, or mourning, you want so badly to reach out and comfort them. to let them know that the story does end. and with a few page turns the pain will be over.
i love it when a book pulls me in so much, that i literally audibly react to the story.
i laugh. i yell. i comfort. i scream. i cry. i whisper.
i tell the characters that its going to be okay. i let them know when i don't like what they're doing. i laugh when something is funny and i cry when something moves me.
and i love it.
Maybe once a week or so, I'll have a day where I'll post on a book that i recently read. kinda like a book review. but mainly just a place to record my thoughts. I'll enjoy it. hopefully you will to :]
thoughts??

I was thinking about doing something similar with my blog in the future, so I like the idea! I just was doing some blog surfing and found your blog. I'm glad I did. I'm adding myself as your newest follower and I hope you'll check out my blog as well.

I love books!!! Can't live without them... they teach you things you wouldn't know otherwise, and they open your imagination. :)
