My childhood was spent largely in rural areas. I spent a lot of time living on farms with wide open places around me and mysterious forests to explore. I spent much of my younger years outside playing, exploring, and being an adventurer. When I wasn't outside I often had a book in hand and was immersed in the world of whatever novel I was reading at the time. As soon as I learned to read well, I always had a novel in hand. I still love immersing myself in the world of a novel and keeping my head in the clouds dreaming what it would be like to live there. I grew up as a dreamer and adventurer and often kept to myself. I was very shy and didn't want to play with other children a lot. I'm still pretty much a loner except for family and close friends. I keep in touch with the world through on-line friendships. I like hanging out and working from home.
As a teen I started to lose some of that adventuring spirit I had as a child. It was easier to stay in and read a book than to go outside and do anything. I still enjoyed outdoor activities, but only the ones with a purpose. I didn't wander freely and explore as much as when I was younger.
I hope that you enjoyed this glimpse from my past.
