An A.D.D. Epidemic

                           

                             "For some people, the very idea of reading a book has come
                                  to seem old fashioned, maybe even a little silly-- like
                                 sewing your own shirts or butchering your own meat."


I believe that this statement is incredibly accurate. Everyone believes that reading books is old fashioned. Even reading in general has started to seem like a tedious, unnecessary task. Most people frown upon people who sit reading books instead of socializing...yet somehow, reading them on a kindle or iPad makes reading more socially accepted. I think that most people just don't understand. They don't understand how someone can sit down and read books for hours when most people lose interest after several paragraphs. Our society seems to have been infected with an epidemic of A.D.D.

  1. I couldn't agree more with you. People(including myself) just always say "I just don't have the time to sit and read a book".
