A glimpse of her

Reading books has always calm me. Its like an escape for me from the real world. Sinking my teeth into it, story after a story. Fictions has been my favorite of all time though i purposely avoid heart - breaking stories at all cost because I could not stand them and i am going to end up in depression later for that particular action. Practically, i read all type of books, well i tried to broaden my horizon without being picky about it because most books that i really wanted to read is not something that i could always afford to own. At my current house that my family rented now, there are the remaining of my classical books collection that i used to own when i was little. The number of the books has been narrowed down because we were moving out a lot and most books lost during the process. I have always been an avid reader with anything now as i grew up and my passion for reading never die. My late mum always taught me to love books when she gave me my first book, a thick large book about fairy tales when i was 7. I miss my mum...so much. She was the one who taught me everything and make me of what i am today. i was never that closed with my mum when i was a little girl but i saw her as a strong, independent woman that worked so hard night and day to make a living and to raise her children. never once i heard she whined or dissatisfied about anything. she kept moving on....
