Time for a Four Letter Word

Well, with all the stuff that is going on these days I have decided it’s time to talk about a Four Letter Word. Don’t try and talk me out of it.  I am going to say a four-letter word.  Are you ready?  Here comes the four-letter word… “READ”…remember that one? I know I used to read all the time. But somehow with TV and Computers, I never seem to have time to pick up a book.

Growing up I remember in the summer going to the small public library in my hometown. I’d get there early and wait for it to open just so I could get a bunch of books to take home and read.

Well, since it appears we are all going to have some extra time on our hands. I think it’s time to start reading again. I’m not talking about reading online about all the stuff going on around us.

I’m talking about taking a break and reading a Good Book. It can be Non-Fiction, my favorite kind. Or it can be Fiction. Just read something to make useful use of your extra time. Who knows maybe you will enjoy reading so much you get back in the habit of spending part of every day with a good book. I think it would do us all good to start using the Four Letter Word…Read.

So turn off the TV for a while and sit back and welcome back an old friend.  I’m sure you still have some books somewhere in your house.  Go find one and rediscover the joy of reading.
