People always ask me why I read. Why do I spend every waking moment with some type of book in front of my face or in my ears. Why do I tune everyone out till there is nothing but me, my thoughts, and the book. Most of the time I give a half answer. it normally goes a little something like this" I enjoy reading. It's fun. I like the way they write." but I realize that yes this is true it's not the full reason I read. I read because of many different things. Most of them depressing reason's but reasons none the less.
Reason 1: I hate to be social ,but I would love to be if I could. so I read books that have people who struggle the way I do or the people who are social so I can admire their bravery and wishing it were my own. but I imagine I was in there place
Reason 2: I know I will never be able to go to different parts of the world, country, or even some states. I know what your thinking "yeah you could don't be so down" but thats just it i'm not tying to be down. I've just accepted the truth. So Love to read books with far off places that will take me were I wish I could go.
Reason 3: I don't really like the life i'm in. So I read about the people who have it easy, worse than I do, or sometime similar situation. So I can do one of three things Be glad that my life isn't as messed up as theirs, Be happy for and a little jealous of the people who had it easy, or the last one be relatable to the people going thru what i'm going thru.
Reason 4: Just to get away. All of these kind of tie in together but I just want to get away from everything and everyone including myself and when I read i'm no longer Lille i'm that character, that person, animal, plant whatever the author wants me to be. I'm no longer me i'm them
Reason 5: I have an XBOX but I've already beat the game and some they make me sick. So instead of curling up to a bucket and spilling my guts. I choose to curl up on my bed with a pillow and a book and read
Reason 6: When you have, well I think there strict, Strict guardians they don't want you to go out with friends they don't like/ don't trust....They don't like any of my friends so lovely week-ends are spent reading while my friends hangout
And I'm sure there are more reasons that I Love and need reading but off the top of my head thats all I can think of.
