Run Baby Run
The main purpose of me reading again was to kill time during the weekends so that i would not have time to think and brood. ( My friend told me to study, but NO. ) It was never my intention to pick it up and continue reading.
Until i picked this book up.
It made me miss reading so terribly and got me wondering how did i even managed to give it up. Oh wait, i stopped reading because there seems to be no time for it and life seems to have better things to offer.
Back in secondary school where time was abundant, i used to kill time reading 2 books a day, and not only that, the "reading period" before Assembly really encouraged me to read.
But after my O levels, time seems really scarce and furthermore, i have completed reading the collection of 500+ books that i have and started to sell them.
Nowadays, when i tried reading again, i feel so bored as hell. Maybe because the books i previously borrowed from the library are always the same genre.
Anyway, sometimes i wonder why life can't be the same as some story but i realised that in books, we know the ending and can just skip to it, but in life, it takes much energy, perserverance and patience to get the ending that you want.
It doesn't just fall on your lap.

I agree. I used to love having loads of time to read, but once I had kids, that was a thing of the past.
