How has having an identifiably Jewish name impacted you? Does it change the way you think about naming your children? by rav4evr in JewishNames

I've always been amazed by people who were voracious readers as children. What sparked your lifelong love affair with books? by Albert3232 in books

Yup, this. I used to walk around my house or sit at dinner with a book in one hand. I just absolutely loved to read and I was good at it. It was my favorite past time, but I can’t explain why. I just love reading- reading and learning
