Sweet Sweet Fantasies..

I have spent pretty much an entire day cuddled on my couch reading. Snow flakes provide a breathtaking background, a fire roars and all is peaceful and somber except my imagination. I want to take this time to encourage everyone to read a book. I don't care what book it is whether you read about politics or fictional things as I am today, read something that will take your mind to places it cannot fathom. I detest when people say oh I don't have time to read or oh I would rather watch tv because those are not excuses.  There is always time to read. Even a paragraph. Are you reading this right now? Then  you have time to read something. I have always felt that reading makes us wiser, and stronger in mind. You can learn from it, and become creative in ways you don't even realize. So whether it be at night or in the middle of the day for you, open a book and learn something. Books are the soul objects in life that won't let us down, will keep us on our toes and constantly give us that thrill we are desperately seeking. I don't know about you, but not many people nor inanimate objects besides give me those feelings. The only downside to reading? You do it too much, your ass is going to spread a little from all the sitting. Don't lie to me, show of hands, who has gotten a little or a lot fatter after this holiday season? Although I cannot see your hands, I know 50% are raising them and the other 50% are in denial and not raising them out of sheer self consiousness. So here is your solution: read on a treadmill or while doing lunges. Yes you may look ridiculous but it will make the workout so much more enjoyable. So again  I will say, if you have time to read this, take some time to read something fun and exciting. It will shoot your endorphines through the roof and like one miss Elle Woods so wisely put it, endorphines make you happy and happy people dont kill their husbands. Us wives need this advice so put it to use and happy reading!
