Raised by books

I was raised by books and I am not ashamed of it.

Books were surrounding me from an early age, and I was eager to dive in stories that books offered me. I don’t remember my very first book, but I remember the ones that touched me the most. One of them was a little prince. I, only seven years old, realized that when I will grow up, I would be a completely different person. And I will not remember how I used to be as a child. That idea was scary.

From then to now, I am returning in my thoughts to my child days, trying not to forget what was it like. That feeling of wonder and freedom. That lust for life. The emotions and love to everything that lives. Innocence. The importance of inner innocence and purity.

Books offer wide scale of feelings and experience. You can become an hero, a soldier, a princess or a poor kid. You can travel around the world and discover new islands, get lost in the sea, fall in love or find a real friend. How beautiful the world of books is.
