Have you ever got so caught up in a book  that you forget the world around you. You become this fiction character in this fiction world. Though in that moment its not fiction. You become this other person. You feel what they feel, see what they see. You laugh when they laugh. Shed tears when they do.  The "real" world quickly fades and this fantasy becomes reality.  When they over come defeats , you feel like you have also.  I've been saying alot of yous , but truly this is me.  Growing up reading has always been my passion. Though, the only reason is getting lost in these storys come easily to me.  I'll spend hours reading a story because I crave that time where my reality doesn't exist. Where I become this different person. Sometimes I'm a warrior able defeat anything that comes my way . A detective finding clues to horrid murder. A princess finding her one true love. I'll read till i fall asleep or the story comes to a end. At that moment when i read the last page and close the book. I feel a sting of disappointment. Not because the story was over, but because now i had to think about whats going in my world.  I'm no longer this other person. I'm just me.
