The Book

If there's a book you really want to read but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.

~Toni Morrison

We have all read books before. Or at least one book. When we read, we tend to picture the characters and actions of the book in our minds making it more interesting.

Now each book that we read, its about different people and a different story yet sometimes, the happenings in the book may relate to the reader so well that it may actually show a way to solve a certain problem in life. Can we call that a storybook ending? You tell me.

Here's the point; do you realize that we are ALL writers? No?

Well, we are.

Now here's another point; you may not know because you are not WRITING the book.

What does that mean? First a writer then not writing it? Am I insane? Maybe....

3rd point; we are the main characters in the book.

Still not getting me? Oh well....

LIFE is a book.

An ant's life is a book. A tree's life is a book. A dog's life is a book. YOUR life is a book.

Each and every day that passes by, we are putting more and more into the book without really realizing it. And in this book there more chapters than one can ever imagine. If I was given the chance to title the chapters of the book about my life, I would start off with "Chapter 1: The Birth" and end it with "Epilogue: The Last Moments"

Why do I say that life is a book?

Well, when you look back at times that you once had with friends and family and all, it's like a book. You turn back the pages to take a look of the story then. What if you forget? It's as if the pages of the book were torn out.

Here's the best part. A book is really detailed. When you look back into the past, you actually remember your feelings at the particular time. Also, a book shows you that what you feel at the moment may not be the biggest thing that is affecting your life but something else. Something between the lines.

A book has so many emotions in it. Love, hate, anger, jealousy etc. and yet 99% of the time, it has a happy ending. So does life.
