my escape.

via: the book connection on: facebook


i have said it before
and 
i will say it again.

books
are 
my refuge.

a way to escape.
to unwind.
to travel.
to lose myself.

it saved my sanity
when going through
chemotherapy;

when i was reading
i forgot 
that i was:
sick
that i
had cancer
or
that i
 was bald!

i became immersed 
in the characters 
i was reading about.

i lost myself
in
books.
(or maybe i found myself?)

books.
have.
always.
been.
and.
will.
always.
be.
my.
best.
friends!

I couldn't agree with you more my friend. I just couldn't imagine a life without books. Wishing you and your family (and I know that you will all be together) a very happy and joyful Christmas.

I seldom read a book, but I live with a "book person", so I do understand what you're saying, at least somewhat. I hope Santa brings you many books for Christmas!!
