What kind of books do you read?

I saw the movie and my ex boyfriend bought Lolita for me but I never got around to reading it and have since sold it. It’s a bit taboo/risque I think yeah?

Yes, it’s about a pedophilic rapist. Dark subject matter. But I think of it as an allegory about the old world vs. modern American culture.

you sold a gift? in my country thats rude.

Religious books, nursing magazines, classic novels, yoga and meditation magazines, and archaeology magazines.

I used to read the dictionary, thesaurus, and kids books, nowadays it’s mostly kids books with neat pictures.

Yes I do meditate. For 15 minutes, twice daily, everyday. Do you meditate?

of course. it’s my daily habit for years. one hour maybe more every noon.

do you want any tips? what kind of meditation do you perform? you have entered samadhis?

They got pages, a cover, lots of writing, chapters.

But seriously, I like biography’s and autobiography’s. I love hearing about real peoples lives. I read about a year ago, " Life" by Keith Richards and then an Aerosmith autobiography. And the story of Motely Crue.

do you meditate just for calming down or for enlightenment?

I was an avid reader of thousands of books but now I can’t read anymore. firstly I have lost interest & secondly I can’t concentrate

I’ve lost interest in picking up books because when I hit 50, I can’t read anymore without stupid glasses. I hate wearing them.
I’m the only person on both sides of the family that hasn’t worn glasses since childhood…everybody else had them at age 5 and beyond.
I wonder if the mailman had good eyes?

Read Tolkien early and that was like smack! I love fantasy and sci fi. I like the escapism but I did major in english literature and have read a lot of the canon of good reads. I saw a thing on facebook of the top 200 novels. I’d read like 20 or so which I think gives me some credit!

I like psychology, sociology, religion, and self-help books. I am currently enjoying “The Norton Book of Friendship,” (1991 by Eudora Welty) which is a collection of short pieces about various aspects of friendship.
