I love books. I love reading. (This makes my job quite ideal). I love people. You know what would be absolutely fantastic? If you could combine all of these things!
I wish that I could read people, just like I read a book. Sure, there may be those times that I don't necessarily understand everything that I'm reading...But at least I've got a general idea of what's going on. Real life, of course, is nothing like that. I never know what people mean by what they say, or how they act, or....whatever. (For that matter, I don't understand the way or the reason that I do things.) I wish that I knew the secret to understanding people. I wish that I knew how to let people know what's going on inside. I wish that communication was real. One thing that I love about reading is that you become so invested in the book. Many times, you grow to love the story and it becomes a part of you. How wonderful would it be to have that care and love for those that we come in contact with? Another bonus: Life is beautiful. If it were a tale written in a book, don't you think that it would be the most soft and lovely piece of poetry to ever grace the human mind? Exactly.

i think we would get along
I wish I could read people too. All the time I'm wondering what people are inflecting by tone or actions... I'm usually clueless
Brilliance!
So...this doesn't apply to this post. But I just wanted to let you know... the little Joy in the Journey thing has now gotten that song in my head. After I started singing Joy In the Journey, I then started singing "Call Home (call home!)". Now I hope it's in your head, too. :)
