We have reached the end of a story. It’s the end of one tale and the start of the next. It’s easy to be happy about beginnings. Endings can go either way. They can be happy or sad.

Do you read?
Do you read? Books are all the things you’re thinking of right now. Books are movies in your mind’s eye while you are reading. They are tickets to far away lands, windows into other humans’ lives and vessels to worlds unknown. Books are a way to connect with other people who share the same interests…… Continue reading Do you read?
Reading is an acquired taste
Humans who love reading do not understand others who don’t enjoy reading. We readers look at the non reading humans like they are aliens. Think of it this way. Not everyone likes tacos or chocolate.
