If you Could live in a bookish world, which one would it be?
While studying on western politics, I came across a post about an admirable figure who
announced that he was cutting back on his public life because it interfered with his
Reading. His reading (you can notice the possessive pronoun, like saying his arm or his
Leg. After reading this, I began to rethink on what reading and the human mind entails.
Alot of people no longer know how to isolate themselves with a book. It's either we watch a
Movie, visit friends, party, play games, gist out,. But we forget that the way our body needs
Food to survive so does our mind need books to operate soundly in our competitive world
According to Carol shields, reading at least since human beings learned to read silently
Requires an extraordinary effort at paying attention, at remaining alert. When we read with
Attention, an inner circuit of the brain is satisfyingly completed. we feel our perceptions
Sharpen and acquire edge. Reading is something that we do only by shinning our full
Awareness on the task. We can cook, clean, listen to music, shop for groceries. But when
We read it demands all of us. The most challenging thing about reading is the major fact
That the black strokes on the white page must be apprehended and translated into ideas
And ideas fitted into patterns, the pattern then shifted and analysed.
They have been really wrong conceptions about "reading" so many young adults do not
Understand what it means to read (I. E) to be curled up with a book in your arm chair. This is
Because lecturers and teachers make it look so advanced to read. They make it seem
Difficult. Reading for me is done in the laziest of moments....when I am stressed and tired
I then pick up a novel to read as a child watches cartoons or plays with toys. It's simple,
Just like eating and playing cards. When I read I see my self In the imperceptible world
A world that is not mine but through reading I ventured. literature on the page allows us
Experience more fully. In reading, we get in touch with our best selves, and I think that
Reading shortens the distance we must travel to discover what our most private
Perceptions are, in fact, universally felt. Reading also sets you beyond your age mates and
Enables you acquire transformative experience.
