Same As It Ever Was

My sister-in-law can't understand why I read the same book more than once, or watch the same movie several times.

I tell her it's because what I bring to the book or movie or any art may be different each time because I have moved on from the person I was.

Even in the space of a week.

A book read today and the same book read tomorrow each offer something different perhaps even unique.

And even if I haven't moved on, I have.
