They Say Books are Like Friends

I am loving War And Peace. It is not the most exciting, thrilling, or dramatic book I've ever read, but it is consistently enjoyable-just like a lot of my friends. I can't-or won't-put it down for fear that I might not pick it up again. (However, if this analogy holds true, I will not abandon the book for lack of excitement, drama, thrill.) I've set aside quite a few books for now, and I fully intend to finish them after War And Peace. All the books I've set aside for now-they all have bookmarks, and I look forward to picking up where I left off. I guess that friends are sometimes like that, too. For different reasons, a move, an especially busy time of the year, or for more personal reasons, sometimes we have to put a bookmark in some of our friendships for a while and wait for a period of time before we can dive back into it again.

Author's Disclaimer: It is late on a Sunday night after a full day of activity, so I can only offer my apologies for my hazy thoughts that came to me as I was reading. Maybe you have to be really tired to appreciate this analogy, but it is a little bit interesting to me.

I think it's a good analogy. I can definitely relate to that idea. Thanks for the insight:)
