Welcome to Wednesday Wisdom!
Every Wednesday I will be sharing a book related wisdom quote in the hope of sharing my passion for reading books. I hope that the wisdom quotes spark an interest in reading in your life.
Today's Book Wisdom Quote
Prefer Books To People
As I get older (I'm 61 years old), I have noticed that I prefer the company of books over people and social media. There is so much going on in the world that sometimes it becomes too much, and when I open up a book that I am currently reading, it is so easy to leave all the BS in life behind and escape into the story.
The above quote is exactly how I feel when I have to socialize at an event that has left me wanting to leave after a reasonable (cough, cough) time. I either look at my phone for the current time or give my hubby a side eye meant to silently say let's do the Irish goodbye (yup I am Irish and have used this many times to escape from places ...) 🤣🤦 🤷
This quote is especially true when we are at home. A visit to my home and you will most likely find my nose in a book or Kindle, and the hubby knows not to interrupt my reading because my death stare is enough to silence his ramblings, so he then turns his attention to the endless clicking of the remote to find a show to watch.
Ah life as we get older ... my motto ... just read a damn book! 😉📖
