Reading is at my Sanctuary


This book cover reminds me of the start of my custom of reading. As far as I can remember, 'Stuart Little' (by Elwyn Brooks White) was the first English novel I have read after graduating Elementary in the year 1991. Although, I have found pleasures upon reading various books and magazines of history, facts and theories before I enjoyed reading novels, then I came discovering San Isidro Academy Library's collection of mystery stories - the Hardy Boys series and Nancy Drew as well. That is how my predilection of reading became a pursuit which I most likely prefer especially on my solitude. In fact, even at this stage of my life, I still spent much of my time being a troglodyte and I enjoyed each precious moment. Those moments of being alone were not meant for me to be lonely but rather to be confined within the refuge of freedom, solemnity, security and values as conveyed by virtue of my fair sound pragmatic judgment and mind.
