What Do You Think?


       Well, there is a variety of different opinions when it comes to reading. Yes, of all things, I said reading. Reading is such a big part of our lives that we do everyday, weather it's reading novels, television ads, text messages, or even this blog post. Using some "Hero's Journey" vocabulary, some people may describe reading as "The Ultimate Boon" or being in "The Belly of the Beast" for their day. Those who find Reading to be the ultimate boon, enjoy reading and find it to be the highlight of their day. For many, it can be a way to escape their busy and sometimes disappointing lives. For the others who find themselves in the belly of the whale either can't find pleasure in reading or just feel like reading is difficult. When they are required to read anything, they tend to get unhappy and feel miserable. If you're someone like me, you might feel like you go in between the two. Sometimes when I get a book that doesn't intrest me, I feel like reading it puts me in the belly of the beast. Then other times, when I really love the book I'm reading, I feel like reading was definitely the ultimate boon or reward of my day. Everyone has their own thoughts when it come to reading. Some people love to read things on social network sites but just can't find entertainment in things like books and novels; while others can't  think of anything better than crawling up with a good book and reading all day. What do you feel like when it comes to reading?
