I think one of the first big books I ever read was Lord of the rings and it was just like being in a different world I used to read it almost every winter because it was just like ah yes that time of dark where you cant go anywhere really and school is a bire but then you get to go to bed under the covers with a torch and out into this world of elves and whatnot. ..I remember reading camus disturbed the hell out of me after reading one short novel of his the whole world became hollowed out and empty it was freaky. I never read any more camus.

“I can enter the world of the person from my past, delve deep into his thoughts, experience ideas I could never think on my own, *Saturate* myself with his thoughts”. Reminds me that I need to read the book, Meditations by Marcus Aurelius. It has been collecting dust on my shelf for a long time now.

@chetanpandu832 11 ай бұрын

if you start reading that book, i would suggest you to look at another book called " chanakya sutra". i unintentionally started both of them and I feel like Meditations teaches how to withstand pain while chanakya stura teaches avoiding at first place

This is so true and it is very true for authors, as well. When you write stories, it's like you embody those characters and you become this different personality to really lay it down in writing. It's like living vicariously through the various characters that you create. It's awesome to hear him express the reason why he loves to read. That is what every writer wants their reader to feel like.

My ego wants me to become the most developed and superior mind, though. I on the other hand, if 'I' makes any difference, want to become the most powerful thinker, learner and doer to see what it is like to have no steps laid in front of you. To be the frontier brick layer of human progress. No one to follow. And it would be even more interesting if I could KNOW that at that point, if I ever reach it, I am the ultimate. Then I would KNOW that there is no one that can help me. I wonder what that feels like.

This has rarely occurred to me, in the sense of becoming intertwined and so inclined to a story, but for the second time, as I’m reading the lord of the flies, I’m becoming so obsessed, I feel like I’m one of the boys on the island listening to all the others as they talk, and do what they do. Having to put the book down and go to work feels like dragging me from where I really want to be (not literally ofc, I prefer to not be stranded on an island.) it’s a shame the book only has like 200 pages, it’s going to be over soon. (Which is also weird for me to say, as I’ve been intimidated by books over 300)
