I have always been a reader but stopped when I started working and going to school. I never found the time and decided since the books were just piling up I'd better find the time to read them or get rid of them. Well I found the time to read during lunch at work. This didn't seem like much but after a few weeks it turned into something bigger. I found more time at home and rediscovered how reading can take me away from thoughts that could bring me down. With my busy schedule I read a book every two weeks and go on some uplifting adventures.
Thanks for the reminder, Lorus. I will be starting a new job soon and will have a much longer commute. Several people have suggested audio books for the drive ... I can "read" and drive at the same time (as long as I keep paying attention to the road).
