A Novel Approach to Live

Dude, you have to read this book.
It will change your life.

First of all, don’t dude me.
Secondly, how do you know I want to change my life?
Also, there is actually not much I HAVE to do.

Some people are like books that you have to work really hard at to get into.
You need to read more than half way through before you stop wanting to give up.
Sometimes all that effort is totally worth it. Sometimes the ending is a real letdown.

I don’t mind putting some work into a book. I don’t even mind being confused by plot lines. Sometimes I find floating above concrete meaning comforting.
I feel a little lost, but it doesn’t matter. I trust it will all come together eventually.

I don’t worry about memorizing the characters’ names.
Good writers makes me feel as if I know them whether I remember their names or not.
I feel the same way about people in real life.
But then again what is real?
