a 'novel' way of life

after a long time a book moved me to tears...made me forget my life in a way that i could completely lose myself into the roles and characters in the book

what is it about these characters that i so much relate to...as if i am living their life...feeling every pain that they suffer...almost an irony that i cant feel my own life that closely at times and feel as if i am constantly running to avoid living the reality...yet its so much easier to live the same in the novels...

no by no means am i complaining life is unfair to me!

its just that the experience called life is better lived at times through the characters in novels like 'Thornbirds' ...the hurt, the pain, which i put aside somewhere within become sore and the bitter sweet sensation of it all brings a kind of refreshment to life that cant be put in mere words...
