Interruptions



So, you're reading this amazing book. You're just a few pages into it, but it's already caught your attention.

You forget about everything that's going on around you, tune out all sounds and just imagine whats happening in the book. You can picture every scene, every conversation, every character and it's playing like a movie in your head.

You love that feeling don't you? Just being completely in the moment and relaxed?

Now imagine this :

The two characters in the book who you desperately want to 'ship' are having a conversation, and you just know that something amazing is about to happen...

Then someone comes and rips out the next three ages of your book. You'll never know how that conversation ended, and now you'll never be able to... because the person who ripped out the pages, took them away and read it themselves.

Now, they know exactly how that conversation ended, and they're not planning on letting you know.

Sucks, doesn't it?

There goes all hope you had for those two characters, you can't keep reading the book without those three pages, because those three pages could be where all the important events happened. You'd be lost and confused, and would no longer enjoy your book as much.

You can't even ask for those three pages back, because those tears in your books can never be fixed, it just wouldn't be the same.

So, now you've been brought back to reality. And let's face it, it's never going to be as good as that book you were reading....
