My Civil War
07.20.04 (6:49 am)   [edit]
My civil war occurs between my heart, mind and soul. They Never agree on anything! Sigh. I cannot be bothered to elaborate. No, not now.
Here's something to keep your eyes busy:


This was done in Primary 4. 8)
Look at my likes.
I absolutely adore books. To this day, 9 years on from that drawing. They are my escape from harsh reality. My way to travel worlds, to meet new people...To get to know them, yet not so deeply as to stir up emotions on their behalf. Thats what I like about books. You get to know each character within them, and however dear you hold them to your heart, they will remain a constant confidante, holding your secrets and theirs.
Books are much like swimming underwater. You can drown in them, and its ever so hard to control yourself when you're dragged back to the surface. To quote from one of my favourite books:

[i]She was so far away from the schoolroom that it was not agreeable to be dragged back suddenly by a howl from Lottie. Never did she find anything so difficult as to keep herself from losing her temper when she was suddenly disturbed while absorbed in a book. People who are fond of books know the feeling of irritation which sweeps over them at such a moment. The temptation to be unreasonable and snappish is one not easy to manage." - A Little Princess (Frances Hodgeson Burnett)[/i]

One who does not read loses so much...There are televisions and other means, but none of them nostalgic or incredible as a good book. They could be anything. They could contain anything. They allow me to dream, if only for a little while...just a little while.
:) Create some time for yourselves to immerse into whatever you like to read. If you don't, then have a try. Just browse in a bookshop and see what you find! You never know what might happen...
