The habit of going back to books that saved us…

Which book have you read more than any other?

Hey…

I hope all of you are doing well…!

To be honest with all of you;

Reading Books is something that has become a rare thing for me now…!


The cycle of life and coming back from work has taken a big chunk of my time and whatever free time I do have in life,

I try to spend it with loved ones and penning things and ideas that I like…!


But nowhere that means I’ve lost the love for reading…!

It can be reading a post by my fellow writers here on WordPress too,

Because there are many who write here and they write so well that I often get inspired to write and explore a mindset that makes my writing sharp…!


There is something that I have been chipping at for the past few weeks now and this is something that has been on the list for a long time and now that I secured it,

Reading it was a dream up until I couldn’t find the book and now that I have found it, I can’t seem to get the time to go around it…!

The book in question

Yes,

I know it’s an old book but I did want a paperback version because all of the online ones make me switch from one app to another very easy…!

So I bought this books and now it sits in my drawer until I switch my habits and actually kick off this habit of reading and getting another concept in my mind of how the lives were back then…!


For an answer

I’ve read the prophet(standalone book) and complete works of Khalil Gibran more than a healthy person should…!

I’ve sought answers to things and behaviour of people and this is the only book that has stood by me and given me enough clarity and understanding to be the person I am today…!


I hope you do read a little bit each day if you’re trying to add reading and growing into your life…!

And I will try to get atleast a few pages in if not a whole chapter…!


Cheers 🥂

Love Waakiye 🤍
