Everyday life went on. Waking up, getting fresh, having breakfast, going to school, studying, playing, sleeping, I was a 5th grader then, Bored with my life, i wanted to explore like every child. Would watch my di sit with those books called novels and i would think what a waste of tree! And she kept insisting me, "Harshi, read books!" and i would think- has locked herself in these pages now wants to capture me, Books-I HATED them. Who would like to sit with the same book? How can such an active child sit around in a corner with patience. IMPOSSIBLE I used to think.
Then on 5th December which happens to be my birthday my parents gave me the archies series. I was devastated, dumb folded, horrorstruck anything. I smiled, thanked my parents and hurried downstairrs, ters splashing on my cheeks. My dad said half the present is left and gave me a heavy box.....I unwrapped it to find The HARRY POTTER SERIES engraved on it, I burst out crying. My parents felt offended then. I ran up to my room and slammed the door shut. SLAM! I was like would have given me some pens, would have been more happy.
But day by day my book collection got increasing and i had taken a vow not to touch these novels. I finally managed to glance inside the Harry Potter box after almost a couple of days and I saw thick books of 700 pages, I gave a humorless laugh and cursed the author. However i managed to recover the shock and decided to start reading.The first book(novel) I read was- THE AMAZING DAYS OF ABBY HAYES and it turned out to be so awesome that i thought every book is so nice. Slowly I read fomous five, secret seven, hardy boys and finally that day came when I looked up at my book collection.
Chanting God's name with cross fingers, I picked up the Harry Potter Series' first book. It was magic that within a couple of months, I completed the harry potter series and I was actually in love with it.I explored to a magical world, Hogwarts, I travelled to many amazing places from my bedroom. And eventually these books gave me so much wisdom and adventure that I understood that life is the most interesting thing that can happen to anyone.They eventually became my Best Friends.
I read books so much that i was forced to go outside and play. Books were the thing I kept talking about. I drifted to a whole new world of imagination and adventure while reading.I enjoyed like never before. I explored like never before. I understood like never before. Now sitting quietly for hours seem to be so easy. Finding the solution for a problem just needed reference to my books. These pages in which i feared to be captured in now I fell secured to.
Words give life and hope in the worst situation. I used to be a BOOK HATER until I tries one. That birthday when i cried on getting books i feel ashamed about. Though considered madness I love Harry Potter sooo much that I believe in wizards, I believe in Harry. It might not matter to you that much as it matters to me because Harry might be just a character to you for me He's hope in the darkest times, Dumbledore might be a character for you for me my solution to problems. Books might be just pages for you for me my one of the reasons to live. They have made my life extraordinary by giving awesome advice, wisdom and philosophy.
HARRY POTTER MIGHT JUST BE BOOKS FOR YOU FOR ME THE UNEXPECTED TWIST WHO MADE MY LIFE WORTH ENJOYING!!!!!!!!
