I love reading but I dont have time to read?

If you really love to read then you will definitely find a way to take out time to read. You normally don't get time to do many things but you can take out time to do things that you love to.

I will share with you some tips on how can you take out time to read. Here are a few of them -

A suggestion - If you are starting to get into the habit of reading begin with books which have short stories. Leave the novels and the thrillers and the others for a time when you are really in a position to devote longer hours to reading.

Leave aside a fixed time which you decide to spend reading. Say a minimum of 20 minutes per day to start with. Try and stick to whatever time you have chosen.

Now spend maybe a few minutes after bath reading. I know you are in a hurry and you have just taken a rushed bath but you can take out time to pray then why not do something you love. Take out time to read just a few pages. Maybe read the book while eating your salad. Or maybe cut down on your television watching to read the book. Take out 5 minutes off your viewing hour and devote it to reading. Read it while your kids are playing in the park and you are keeping a watch on them. In between keep glancing at the kids to see how they are doing. Just before you go off to bed, read a few pages, if you can. You find out for yourself when you can read.

Carry that book with you - read it when you are waiting for your bus / cab. If you are the few lucky who don't suffer from motion sickness then read the book while travelling. And if you suffer, then read the book when the vehicle has stopped at traffic signals / stops. And if you are the driver then wait till you reach the destination to read the book.

Just go with the flow and take out time to do something that you love to do. Start living Life!!

Welcome!!

Hello people, I didnt know what to write in my posts everyday because I dont speak much. But since I started my blog I thought I will pen down all those things that I think - The random thoughts that keep coming over and over again and simply fading away. But when I am thinking I am not writing my blog and when I am writing I dont remember any of the thoughts.

I thought I will share my epilepsy, how I am coping with it, and how am I living my life. But somehow everytime I sit and write, I keep straining to recall how I am coping with it. For actually I am not coping with it. I am simply living and enjoying life. People around me would be surprised to know even that I actually suffer from it. Picture this -

I put up on my own. I have rented an apartment and own practically all necessary items of furniture and kitchen appliances. Friends visit and stay at my place. So there is room for all and I have guests too. Only that my family and relatives dont drop in because they are opposed to my staying on my own and if they come they will actually endorse my staying on my own - which they dont want to. Anyways I am happy that I am able to manage myself.

I do take proper medications everyday. I have to ensure that my diet is proper and try to cook proper meals. I also rest have that much required sleep. I dont try to exert myself or overdo on anything. I have a maid who helps me with washing and cleaning chores. She is an angel. I guess that all ensures that I can stay on without much trouble.

When I was leaving my place, my mom was apprehensive that what would happen to me. But then I convinced her that even if in your presence something happens then what can you do? If I am crossing the road then what will you do? Somethings are to be left to themselves. Instead of hitting it and trying to figure if it happens then....

Phew!! I never knew I could write so much!!
