Reading is what I enjoy the most in my leisure time.
There is always something both imaginative and therapeutic whenever it comes to reading books.
Whenever I’m going through a malignant time, the first thing I would pick up is a good novel.
Whenever I read my current read, I would transfer myself into a different reality as a form of escapism from reality.
I would visualize myself as the main character, either having an adventure or solving convoluted mysteries, since I persistently correlate myself to the fictional protagonists.
Every book I’ve read correlated to my own persona, hence the reason why I visualized myself as them, making them my favorite characters.
I’ve always been a loner nearly all my life, so the only alternative I always turned to are my favorite books; the fictional characters within the novels are my true friends since they would always be there for me whenever I am in need of accompaniment, therefore, I am never alone.
I have a sign hanging in my sanctuary that said, “Between the pages of a book is a lovely place to be.” That became my motto as an avid bookworm.
All the books I’ve read even influenced me into becoming an author I am today; they brought me the imagination I need to write my own fictional short stories and novels.
To sum everything up, reading is always and eternally the most enjoyable activity for me during my leisure time.
Reading became the person I am today.
I will never stop reading books every day.
Books are a part of me and will always be.
