The other day Rachel and I decided to go to a movie. Afterward we were hungry, so we went and got Chinese takeout and took it to a local park to eat it. It started pouring down rain, so we packed up our lunch and ran to the van. By the time we got to the van it was hailing. We finished our lunch in the van, although it was a little soggy.
At the library, surrounded by books, it seems you can enter another world. Actually, thousands of other worlds. A world with no pain. Escaping into books allows you to forget about the past, future, and present. Books are full of color, illustrating remarkable scenes of beauty. Many people wish to escape out of this dull and gray world, to escape from hardship. But if they were to open their eyes, they would see that the world isn't such a gray and dull place. The fact that they don't know or understand is that we are only here for a short time, and God put it here for us to enjoy while we're here.
