Reading Books

                                                I have come to the realization, that a viable options for much of my “conflicts” in life, is to get lost in the world of books. Hopefully reading books will take me to an entirely different world. I have finally reached that point. I feel that I may be much more happy in packing a book in my backpack, getting on the bus and visiting the local library, on a regular basis, to be able to read in a place with no distractions.

                           I have tried to fit in and to make friends with people where I live. It is not happening. It does not “work” for me. Therefore, I am going to discover the world of books. I just visited the Barnes & Noble site. I have already found a book that I would like to purchase. The title is “Psychology 101”. Something tells me that my main interests are going to be biographies and psychology books. I really am not into fiction, per se’. I might also buy some health-related books, to keep abreast of the latest changes in the healthcare system. 

                              I had originally thought about enrolling in another Stratford course. I was thinking about taking their Psychology/Sociology course, but then realised that taking a distance education course entails monthly tuition payments, taking periodic exams on the course content and ofcourse, the commitment of my time. I would be much better off buying books as I can afford them, and reading them at my leisure for personal interest.

                              All of this will begin after I finish my healthcare aide course, which is not far off. I was on the 4th floor of our building, and stopped in the 4th floor library to see what it had to offer. I found a cookbook to read. Awesome! Wish me luck everyone, as I embark on this new endeavor! 🙂
