An easy day

I had my book group today and as always it was interesting. I decided not to go downtown to Willamette Writers as it is so stormy and rainy. I read somewhere that people who read are interesting and people who write are interesting too. Today in book group people were saying that they were tired of books that are full of characters with problems because they didn't have good parents. Characters like that are often flat with boring lives and boring stories. I like reading books like that because they help me relate to how good my life is. A certain amount of flatness and boredom leaves room for processing and often can lead to reflection, from my point of view. It can be a start of growth.
