HOW DID YOU ACQUIRE YOUR READING HABIT?

 HOW DID YOU ACQUIRE YOUR READING HABIT? 


People often ask me how did I acquire my reading habit. Well, I will tell you the whole story! When I was a child, at 4, my parents bought me a little bookshelf filled with lots of children's books that had a lot of pictures inside. Every day when I came back home from the kindergarden, one of them sat me beside that little bookshelf and read me a book which I chose. I started to really enjoy this fun ritual because I always felt special because I was loved by my parents so much!



After I started to read books by myself, no one could stop me! I think somehow I raised the dickens with my parents because I wanted more and more and more books and because I didn't know about the money or economy I couldn't accept 'NO' as an answer when I wanted to buy books too-too.



Then my parents introduced me to the classical novels and I started to learn about different lifestyles from different cultures at different times, the stories of people who suffer from hunger, who die in war, who have lots of pain because of a illness..


So I grew up with these books and I learned to be grateful for what I have, I understood the value of waiting for something you want and to be patient.


At the end of the story I turned into a really emotional, kind but always ambitious person.
