I rediscovered my love affair with reading last night. It's starting off as a rocky love affair, but we're in negotiation.
It was amazing how much my mind was wandering - how many times I had to go back and re-read the paragraphs. But it was good. Very good.
I can recall when I was younger, all I would do is read. Hours upon hours of reading. Fiction, non-fiction, historical fiction - how to's... didn't matter.
But somehow, I've migrated into the microwave culture where I have the attention span of a gnat.
Even when I look at the paragraphs that I write in my blog, they are rarely over 2 or 3 sentences.
I may have to start working on my attention span.
Any ideas on how to do this?

You know, my attention span (my ADD) has been incredibly bad lately. I'm the same way - used to read, for hours on end, even while walking down the hallway. Now, I can barely make it through a paragraph in House of God. What's the damn deal??? &=(
