I love reading books.

And most of my friends know it.

But then. Whenever we discuss or argue about something.

Every time, I seem to have a valid point, they would be like —

Okay, don’t bring your bookish knowledge here or

If I am not good at something, they would be like —

You read so many books, you can work on this.

Dear Non-readers, I read fiction for the pleasure of imagination and non-fiction for the pleasure of growing as a person.

That doesn’t mean, I argue from the books nor does it mean it gives me all the answers.

If readers can solve all the problems in life according to you. Why don’t you take it up to yourself? , Are you lazy? , scared?

Oh, you say, you don’t read. Have you tried audiobooks? Oh, you say, you don’t listen? Have you tried signing up for courses? No right?

Here is my advice, take it or leave it — You go work your ass off on what you love, watch movies, get drunk, do drugs, or stay clean and meditate. Travel or be at home. Do whatever the f**k you want.

Just don’t judge people who read. Actually, don’t judge anyone on anything, especially on things people love doing.

Every one of us has enough problems to deal with.

All I am saying is, either live your life non-judgemental and I would love you guys. If not, we aren’t friends anymore.
