Okay,
so now we’re in 2012. A brand new year for
new drama, killings, issues, divorces, sexual
abuse, and the list goes on and on. I find myself
hoping that this year will be better than last
year. I always tell myself that I will do the
things that I didn’t do in 2011. My health
will be in remission, and I will do some traveling.
Again, I don’t plan on making new years
resolutions because I can never fulfill them.
I just hope and pray that I will be able to accomplish
my goals and dreams in 2012. Right now, I am so
thrilled to be alive, and my family, friends,
and co-workers are alive and well too.
Of
course the financial, health, relationships, unemployment,
and evil issues are still bordering on our sanity,
but we will handle them the same way we handled
them in 2011. But this year is going to be better
for readers, and books. This is the age for the
nook, ipad, kindle fire, tablets, and kobo readers,
and the list goes on. Therefore, people will be
doing a lot more reading, and the books of romance
will be added to their e-reader device. There
were a lot of electronics given for Christmas
gifts last year, mostly iPod's, but there were
a lot of e-readers and tablets also under the
Christmas tree.
So
I believe the world will move toward reading and
spending more time with books instead of watching
reality shows, and the nonsense that’s parading
the television these days. Things have changed
so much for television with the dismissal of All
My Children and now One Life to live this month.
I grew up with these shows, so it’s sad
to see them being dismissed probably because of
too many reality shows. Television is not like
it used to be, believe me. It’s time for
us to turn the button on television off, and turn
on those Kindle
and Nook,
and start reading our magazines and our books
of mystery and romance.
I spent a lot of time on my holiday vacation catching
up on my reading, and I have read some fantastic
books including:
• Taste
of Desire by Kayla Perrin
• Fractured
by Wendy Byrne
• Everything
in Between by Crystal Hubbard
• Winter
Kisses by A.C. Arthur
• A
Compromising Affair by Gwynne Foster
I
can go on and on, but I was thrilled that I got
to spend my time doing what I love best, and that
is reading, reading, and reading romance, which
is my passion. I have to admit that I read other
books too like James Patterson, and Jackie Collins;
but there’s nothing like a man and woman
meeting across the room, and finding love in all
the right places. The two main characters fighting
their innermost demons and then finding true love
against all odds.
So
let’s begin 2012 in a positive light because
the violence and the evil will continue as it
did last year. If we can escape for a moment,
let’s dive into a book of romance and feel
the joy and passion that we can in this horrific
world. This is only the beginning of a new year
with many surprises and tragedies, which we can’t
control or understand.
Take
a ride with me and romance, and enjoy the ride.
It’s a great way to start off 2012. Why
not? |
