I have a number of blog backlogs about our trips over the holidays but I just have to post this as I find this one extremely important especially since I think I haven’t completely read a single chapter of a book in just one 10-minute sitting ever since we started our wedding preparations. I usually read just 5 pages at most; brrr.
The internet has been tons of help in planning for our wedding. As mostly I look up wedding ideas, my research is heavily graphic-focused with fast reading on captions and titles and headings. Whenever I encounter sites that only have pure texts on it, I tend to skip it. I did this again and again until lately, I have noticed that it takes some effort and some amount of patience for me to read heavy text websites. And somehow, I find this taking-some-amount-of-patience-to-read quite disturbing although I can’t quite put a finger as to why.
Yet another thing that’s nagging at the back of my head is my forgetfulness which I think is getting worse by the day. An idea would pop in my head and if I don’t cater to it the moment it popped, it’d be gone even only 2 seconds after, poof!. Then, I had to take some effort to remember it. It’s like there are a lot of stuff running through my head competing for attention.
When I read below blog post and read the part about loosing the ability to “contemplate and reflect”, alarm signals went ringing inside my head, telling me to go grab a book ASAP. I just might mimic Hubbie for a while and read tons of books, at least until after these worries are proven unfounded.
