Lucky you!
I just deeply enjoy the timeless truths that I get from reading the books over and over again. My parents don't understand it at all. They think it's just another obsession of mine, and one that I will get over in a couple of years. They couldn't be more wrong. I have finally found a set of moral codes and examples that I can follow for the rest of my life, while still leading a "normal" life, in this modern world. I have finally found attainable ideals to look up to and admire for who they are, what they did, and how they did it. Now tell me, is it truly worth it to give up all that in a few years? If they really think so, then they don't know me at all.
