Reading fascinates me. a lot. it's like a brand new world, that i can immerse myself into. Whenever i find myself reading a story, be it a novel or a short one, i can't help myself but be detached from the real world and live in an alternate universe where the characters are new people in my life, new friends who i celebrate with when they are happy and i cry with when they are hurt or sad, whatever the plot permits.
I feel blessed for being given the gift to appreciate books, to appreciate the act of reading itself. Although there could really be times when reading fiction distracts me from my responsibilities in life, I feel fulfilled when i get to finish a book as soon as possible after starting it. :p I may not always be happy, and I may actually be even disturbed about the story, but at least i was given a break from my can-be-mundane life :p
thus i encourage everyone to read. try different worlds and continue learning :)
