![[149] The Future Waits For None](https://rahulgaurblog.files.wordpress.com/2018/05/149.jpeg?w=720)
As I sit here, a realisation dawns on me. The world nods in confirmation of my fear that it doesn't really require me as it runs without me unabashedly. This doesn't come as a surprise at all but it comes like that strong gust of wind that uproots even the most rooted grass from the [...]

A guide to not reading books. Step 1: Read a book's synopsis, blurbs and get interested to read it. Step 2: Go to goodreads and check how many pages it is. Step 3: Start reading reviews. NO. Start reading 'negative' reviews. Et voila! Anyone else facing the same problem?
