I have toggled between two states.
One - where I hate reading. Just like you do. In that state, I want to get straight to the crux, the core essence of what it’s all about.
Another where I really dwell on the descriptive matter and find beauty in it. I like the way descriptive text makes my mind conjure up a picture from words.
But then maybe due to my being in IT as well, I battle being in that second state for long. I snap myself back into - telegraphic, insta messaging world.
I don’t prefer one over the other. But if I were not in IT, I’d have preferred the “wordy” world.
PS - Hope you didn’t hate reading this 😄.
