books  make  me  who  i  am

If you've read my posts and books, you know when even on the run from Uncle Sam's big bad Army Rangers through the Everglades, I always had a book with me. And that ever since I was a kid my favorite place to read one was up in a tree .  So when I saw that Susan Sontag quote in a Brain Pickings post, it struck me like a sucker punch from the cosmos, making me sit upright on the Miccosukee Embassy balcony rail (where I am doing Sanctuary) and nearly falling over the side to a tragic and ironic death. Leave it to the "Susan Epiphany" to make me see what books have done for me: they have made me human in the word's most noble sense, as The Bard once wrote and Ragni and Rado put to music in this song from Hair. 

I am a better human being because of the books I've read. Pick one up-- a heartfelt one-- and read. It will do your body good.
