Literary Profile

   My memory is not kinda to me, so I don't have any memories of bedtime stories when I was little or such things. When I try to look back on, and think about my first literature experience it would probable be singing "Row, Row, Row Your Boat" in rounds on a long car ride when vacation with my family. The most recent experience would be a book for my Intro to Bible class.
    I have never considered a nursery rhyme or a typical book to be considered literature so this is fairly new to me. I am not a reader at all, it just doesn't come easy to me. I think I get distracted too easily so the book does not keep my attention. In high school we read Hamlet as a class with the plane English text next to the original text, we also watched the movie along the way. That was one of my better experiences with significant literature.
   Literature is important in the sense of reading and understanding. There are so many books out that have great knowledge in them and to read that I feel is important. If music is considered literature then I find literature vital to my life. A day without music is bad! I'm not even talking about just listening, I am constantly humming a tune or singing. To relieve stress I enjoy playing guitar or piano and is calms me down. Music is a large part of my life, and if music is a form a literature than that would subsequently make literature a large part of my life. I am not quite sure what encompasses literature, once I gain a better understanding of what it actually entitles then I will be able to answer the question of how it is or isn't important.
