Everything you said is pretty much what I told her. And I get my self help from seeing a character overcome something. It encourages me that I can do the same.Jenny S.

I think it's a tool and a gift to be able to read and use it in our lives.

When I read a great story, it lets me escape for a little while. I'd go to the crazy house without either of these outlets!Ruth Jossehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08664678990038670303noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6509009608138236950.post-59382018404098210562011-12-08T08:45:19.485-07:002011-12-08T08:45:19.485-07:00I don't think I have much more to add to what ...I don't think I have much more to add to what you said. I truly love to read because it is an escape, and very cathartic when you find a character dealing with the same trials as you. I love it.<br /><br />And I'm love the quote by Twain.

And I find that if I don't get some reading time during the day, I get cranky. :)<br /><br />Hmm, I want to set a reading goal, too. I haven't counted up how many books I've read this year yet.
