Write in Your Books
Until just a few years ago I would never write or make markings in any book that I was reading. I could not bring myself to highlight, underline, or put my thoughts in the margins. It just seemed “wrong” to write in a book, even a book that I owned. Today, however, I write or make markings in almost every book I read, including my copies of the Holy Bible. Writing, highlighting, and making notes in books that I have read has been highly beneficial, though getting past the initial mental block was hard (making the first mark in a new book still gives me some trouble sometimes)....
