So, why do people always feel the need to comment on my reading? Really, does it bother you somehow? Does it scare you? Do you pick on people for playing sports or playing an instrument? Or is it just us "geeks" that it's open season on?
I really don't get it, why do people feel the need to always comment? "Haha, do you always have a book with you?", "oh my, how many books do you read each year? Hihi, reading is so boring". Well, apparently I don't find reading all that boring since yes, most of the time I will carry a book with me. Books are a hell of a lot better company than most people I have met. I don't expect people to understand, but I sure as hell expect them to respect it. Books is my love, my life. I will not, can not, live without them.
The world of books got me through my days when no therapy, no medicins could. They kept me somewhat sane when everything around me was crumbling painfully. And when things just got too much to bare, they were my safe haven.
And why do people look down on audio books? If one more person out there giggle and call me lazy for listening to audio books I think I will scream. Just because some illiterate people can't grasp the pure wonder that books are, even when they are spoken out loud, it does not give them the right to push me down. Yes, I am quite upset because I am really fed up with this so before anyone else out there decides to laugh at me for reading, let me make this clear:
No matter who you are, I will choose my books over you. Any day. Every time.
No matter who you are, I will choose my books over you. Any day. Every time.
Over and out
