thoughts

   I keep glancing up to notice the eight books I got from a library surplus sale. Lately I've been collecting (not counting textbooks) about five or six books a month, average. But I've only read about a half of a book each month, including textbooks. At this rate I'm sure it's only a matter of years before I'll be able to retire. I really feel the Preacher's words whenever my college makes me move. I'm hoping to commit more time to reading. At this point in my life, I'm not sure how much time should be spent learning and how much time should be spent putting into practice. Are those actions unable to be separated from one another?
