Go to the bookstore today!

I wrote a blog a month ago and asked the question, "What are you reading to keep fit?" It spoke of my dreams of having a library room stocked with books, how fortunate I am as many as I do and what I was currently reading.

One of my favorite Author's and blogger is Seth Godin. He writes a blog every day and is my inspiration for writing mine every day.

Today's blog, received at 5:30am sharp, as always, was called "An End to Books" and I cannot agree with him more as he makes some great points about the dying of book stores and libraries and how the whole publishing industry has changed. Not to mention that we can now get books downloaded to our iPads and Tablets, but unfortunately those devices also have emails and other distractions.

I love to go hang out at a bookstore. Oh wait, can you tell me where one is? Yes, they are getting harder and harder to find. Once upon a time there was the small bookstore, which then grew to the Mega Book Store and then all of the sudden, most of those have vanished.

I have to admit, I do on occasion download books now to my iPad as I just don't take nor have the time to go enjoy the book store as I like to do. I use to make it a Sunday ritual, then I got married, had a kid and as you know, responsibilities of life kick in.

I seem to be coming back to the theme, wouldn't you say? Balance! Find time to do the things you love.

I will be going to a bookstore today... Perhaps to buy another Seth Godin book.  ;-)

Health and Happiness!
