The book and bed strategy to life!

There are very few days in my life where I have chosen my life strategy as a big thick book and a downy soft bed covered with likewise goose down pillows as life coping skills for that day. Yet there are days. It is so cathartic when you bend the new spine of a book and lick your thumb and finger to turn yet untouched pages that hold a story that is better then the one you are currently living! It is amazing how the first few words are like a spider slowly spinning a web between your imagination and the black bold type before your eyes. You slowly seep from your own story into one, if the author is worth anything, of magic, intrigue, mystery, romance. (Pick your poison!) You  imagine a world that the words have described to you and the people you will learn to love, hate, or cheer for! The eagerness, that engulfs you, of wanting to hear the whole of their stories before you enter back into your own one! As I have said, the days are far and few, but when one is given the day off from life in such a manner it is as delectable as the finest swiss chocolate, a day at the spa, or that one thing that brings you joy! So, today, I say don't go and do, unless it is with a good book and equally good bed!
