Reading is...something

I have been reading a lot lately, and something about reading makes me feel alive somehow. It’s amazing how large amounts of “paragraphs” don't bore the hell out of me, just like how I always write academic essays. Well look at where I am now, hooked into some kind of web novel that I appear to find out was made 5 years ago (Man, I was missing out). And when you’re so hooked on that book, you realize you have already immersed yourself in that book. It’s like you’re ONE with that book.

Incredibly, reading is also referred to as a therapy to some, and I couldn’t agree more. Since I overthink a lot, things get a lot more messy for me to take care of and I get so frustrated at myself because I couldn't do one simple task. Then I ask myself, “I need something to take my mind off somewhere that’s not that overwhelming for me to think”. That’s when I thought of reading. Reading has always made my day fictional as if I’m romanticizing my whole life like I’m in a novel. Whether it’s a printed book or online, they still give you that excitement you yearn to have within your boring lives. It became a craving for me as if it were my daily meal.
