How do you waste the most time every day?
My first love is reading. I’m a junkie for all types of romances, poetry, news, and the Quoraan. The first 2 are there to improve my writing style and incorporating new forms into my poetry. The news, however, I use in order to add eco-socio-political issues in my poetry.
Now, your question would be, how are the readings then a waste of time? My answer is that they all give me an escape, a world that I interact with that’s entirely mine. Perhaps it’s selfish, but I believe each one serves a purpose for me.
As for the Quraan, that too is an escape into faith, where belief, ideals, and values are unchanging, clear, and just. At least, that’s my perspective.
