Finding solace
I am beginning to find solace in reading again.
Basking in my solitude, you might say. Friends come and friends go. Lovers too.
Yet, a good book can be revisited over and over. If only one could read them all...
Last year was not one for reading. On the contrary, it was one for distraction. Elation and heartbreak.
However, this year may bring a return to reading. And hopefully writing. Life creates so many ideas that I yearn to capture. Plus, if anyone can learn from my pain... my shortcomings... then, perhaps, a memoir is worth finishing. If only to save one jackass from tainting the spirit of love with his beloved...
But I digress.
