Feed the Reader

Reading is a huge part of my life. I’m one of those people who can proudly call herself a reader. Yes, I am a reader and I enjoy every single part of the reading process.

It starts with going to a bookstore, walking slowly around the aisles, reading back covers, observing the covers and even sniffing the books when no one is watching. I pick them up and then carefully put them back down as if I disturbed the story when I touched it.

And then, when I find the one I was looking for, I can’t put it down. There’s excitement and curiosity for the story that intrigued me this much so I have to buy this book.

I’m a huge story lover.

Stories are everywhere, floating around us, tickling our brains and the more stories I learn the more I want to keep reading.

But there are many genres of books and lately I have the urge to read something different.

Have you heard Jorge Bucay? He’s a psychotherapist from Argentina and his has written many books. Those that I’m interested about are a series of books talking about our life and the way we move through it.

I find his words endearing and very practical. Life moves so fast and sometimes I feel numb. We need to grasp life and live it, not to watch it pass by us and by reading these books, I feel like stepping onto solid ground again.  

Give it a try if you feel like it. I think we all need a word of wisdom now and then and surely, Bucay, has some valuable advice to give.
