Why I read you ask.
Reading is like a separate world apart from reality. So when you need a break from all the chaos in your life pick up a book and get away for a few hours. That is one of the many reasons why I love reading. When life is getting a little to crazy I pick up a book and escape for a day. I remember when I was little my mom and dad would hide my books, because I wouldn't get my chores done. I would read all the time because I loved the movie I played in my head when I read. As I have gotten older my time to read has gotten limited. I have two jobs, school, and a Christian ministry I'm highly involved in. The only time I find myself reading is when I have to for school or when I'm on a road trip, which is often because of the Christian ministry I'm in. My goal for my senior year is to find more time to read the books I want to read and not just the books I have to read for class. I do in face enjoy reading. Reading makes time pass when you have a good book to read.
I feel the same exact way about reading being an escape from reality, and I had the same problem with getting chores done because of books. I think it's important that everyone finds time to read for pleasure rather than required reads, so this class is probably good for both of us to get reading back into our lives.
