Well, the other day a friend of mine asked if liked to read, and I said “I don’t read much”. So she asked me if she could show me her favorite book and a few other good suggestions.
I agreed and she showed me her favorite book and I was like, ‘Oh! I have read this one!’ And it went on like that until 20-30 books that we finally came to a book that I hadn’t read.
Then she turned to me and said,” But you said you don’t read much.”
I smiled and replied, “How much is much?
Is reading 12 books a year much?
Or
Is reading 52 books a year much?
Or
Is reading 365 books a year much?
Well, if you asked me, I would say that none of them fit the description; because even if I spend every single moment of my life reading rather than breathing, it would still, never be much.
Because,
Knowledge can’t be limited,
Imagination sees no boundaries
And reading has no restrictions.
So if you asked me how much I read, I shall always say, ‘I don’t read much.'”
