TIME ESSAYS
I love to read. Books are hard for me to find the time to commit to- and also hard on my ADD. I have around 5 books I am in the middle of reading.
They are:
"The Book of Mormon Made Easier: Gospel Studies Series Volume Four" (yes I am reading this for fun)
"Love and Logic Magic for early Childhood": Jim and Charles Fay
"The Money Book for the Young, Fabulous and Broke": Suze Orman
"From A to B and Back Again': Andy Warhol (3rd reading)
Thats it. A glimpse at me by looking at what I read.
BACK ON SUBJECT
Magazines are good for me because they give me just enough info to nourish my mind, but at the same time... not enough. I subscribe to only 2 magazines, US Weekly and TIME. I devour them in one sitting, and re-read about 3 times before I pawn them on on friends. I known that Steven king writes an essay at the back of most entertainment weeklys, and the most recent one of his I read was on Brittney Spears. it was brilliant. However- the TIME essays are what I pay the money for. Each one is doen so artfully- is so well written that just reading it, regardless if it is on Anti-semitism or Sudan or models.... It brings a smile to my face. This weeks essat "The Real Skinny" by Belinda Luscombe was amazing. reading it was as if I were sipping a fine wine or listening to a piece by Mozart. Some things by Joel Stien are like symphonies of words pouring from the page, mixing intellegent writing with current events to make an entoxicating coctail that I cant resist.
I wish my 'essays' or blogs were on par or even half as good as some of the things I read in TIME. I want to be able to expres myself so you can hear the real me though what i am saying in these Journals I write. More then anything I want to be able to say what I am thinking and have you hear it in yourself as if it was your own thought.
