Book Lover Hubbers Wanted

Updated on November 9, 2011

It Is Time To Share

As long as I can remember I loved books

You could say I was hooked

When I was little there use to be a Scholastic Book Club in school

I thought it was so cool

Most kids bought one book and were happy

I bought eight to ten and other kids thought I was daffy

Years later my collection began to grow

Books piled up higher and higher

I tucked them in the bookshelf and stacked them on the table

I boxed up the extras to read later

Little did I know that my library would grow so big

I became attached to them and gave my books a home

I later called it my B I G library for a number of reasons

Today I have Books I Give to those who care

They are on health and weath and how to handle all kinds of lifes issues

I have a wide range of self help and a strange combination on a whole variety of topics

Too many to list and too many to just forget about

I was so excited and proud and was sure I was going to be the proud owner of my own personal library some day

To my surprise I never had the place or the money to make it happen

My vision was it would look like the library in the Beauty And The Beast

Now like all good things there is a time and a place

They say all good things must come to an end

I disagree and I think all things keep getting better and better

I never wanted to part with any of the books I bought

But it occured to me I can only read one book at a time

So I gave it some thought

If I could share my books with someone who loves books like me

To make sure they would have a home and not thrown away or disguarded like trash

Local libraries said my books are outdated and irrelevant

How can life,love and happiness and learning about business and investments (be out of style)

They said they have too many and are constantly getting rid of any they don't need

Well this will not do

I want someone who appreciates books like I do

I am looking for readers who will read and share their knowledge they have learned

I can put a few in a box and send them on their way

I signed each one and left a positve message for the new owner

It would be nice if you signed it too and maybe other people may borrow them from you

All I ask is for postage and away they go

If interested e-mail me for details

I would appreciate it if you could comment on the books that you have read

Then if we each learn one thing from the books that motivated me and interested you

I can finally move on with a collection of books in the hundreds

Free up some space my wife has been waiting patiently for

I think this could be a start of a new idea

What good is a book left on a shelf

It is better off read and reread

It is not a statue to take up space

An unread book is the saddest thing I can think of

Making my mobil library a sweet success

I hope my books will travel the world over and fill each page with a new name

They will have served one purpose

People will read more and learn more

Thank all you hubbers that gave my books a try

As always have a great day and find the time to read just a little

You just never know what you can learn from a book

It might be a wondeful thought or a new idea

That can keep you happy for years to come
