"If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all."
- Oscar Wilde
The beauty of art and of literature really has a way of
capturing me.When I see a beautiful image, a work of art that moves me, it’s
almost as if my heart would break. It seems dramatic, yes, but it is true for
every piece of art that touches my heart. I can’t explain it to the utmost
point of how it makes me feel, the desire to know every inch of that piece of
art, to see the story within it. It almost feels like love, seeing something so
moving.
There have only been a few stories that have really
gotten through to my core. Something deeper than just fancy words and
descriptions. Though I do admit that these pull me into a story, nothing pulls
me in better than really knowing the character, feeling the story. I love
stories that make me think, that make me wonder “Why?” These are the stories
that leave me speechless and silently begging for more. Even if I’ve gone
through these stories numerous times, I want nothing more than to do it all
over again, to try and feel more than just the pages within my fingertips.
One would
think it almost obsessive. One can only be obsessed with something they can’t
get enough of. And it is true; I can never seem to get enough of the beauty of
art, of literature, and even of human nature, because truly, these all pique my
interest. I thirst for knowledge on it all, the curious nature of which they
come about to entrance us. What is it about these things that make my mind tick
and my heart race; that make me curiouser and curiouser?
