Who am I? Part 8

Who am I?
I’m a reader. Oh, my word, I love books. My mom has always told me that she and my dad made a concerted effort to read to me all the time. I’ve always heard that the more that you read to your kids when they’re young, the more they will enjoy it when they get old; it’s certainly held true in my case. I’ve learned so much from the books that I’ve read throughout my life, and I continue to learn from them. I talked a little bit about this here, but I’m so curious about so many topics and subjects that I continue to read and read and read.
As far as I’m concerned, this is one of the best traits anyone could have. I don’t think I’ve met many intelligent people who weren’t readers, and most of the people I know who are readers are very smart. One of the most often used euphemisms for intelligence is “well-read”, for crying out loud! If there is one thing I hope to impart to my son, other than my faith, it’s my love of reading and learning. Books have opened up so many new interests to me, and I’m really, honestly appreciative to Gutenberg for facilitating my lifetime learning.
