[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is an awesome question! I learned to read when I was pretty young, and I quickly realized that books gave me access to worlds beyond my own, and to information that people in my life did not have access to. Reading became a refuge, and, in some ways, possibly even an addiction. Reading has changed the trajectory of my life in that I’m certain that I owe quite a few standardized test scores to my reading habit. Reading is a hobby, a source of information, a means of facilitating connections with others, a calming habit….Reading is just what I DO. I don’t watch TV, rarely go to movies, and have yet to get into audio books. [/quote] This is me. Reading is just what I do, and who I am. I’ve always been this way. It almost feels hardwired into me. I love to talk about books and articles with people who feel that same charge of energy around words and ideas, but I don’t know many people like that. [/quote]
