When we find the time, or rather, MAKE the time to read, we enjoy life.
Read on the beach while on vacation
Read in bed late at night when you know you should be sleeping because you've got an early morning ahead of you. Just ONE more chapter has got to be read before your brain shuts off for the night.
Read in the kitchen while your breakfast waits for you to finish a couple more pages.
Read until you find a good spot to fold over the corner of the page. start reading again from where you left off as soon as you find the opportunity.
Read on a Saturday when your room is a mess & you KNOW you should be spending your time doing homework.
Read in the car while waiting for someone.
Read the newspaper, the textbooks, the thoughts of others.
Read on the plane ride. Such an uncomfortable red eye flight soothed over with a few wonderful chapters engulfed before arrival.
Read on the couch with dogs cuddled at your feet in a blanket.
When the book is so good that you can't put it down, read between classes or during work. Read in the cracks of the time between commitments and responsibilities.
I've even found myself reading prior to the lights dimming in the movie theater.
Reading in the back of the truck shell for a long family drive.
Bringing my book into the restaurant and reading underneath the table while everyone is overlooking their menus.
Reading is so important. Read to improve your mind. Read to improve your dreams. Read to improve your perspective on life. Read to enter into a new world in order to escape the one you're in for a while. Read to meet new people that only exist in perfectly crafted words on pages. Read to explore new places. Read to feel.
