This issue shouldn't need to be debated.
However people nowadays play to many video games.
I probably sound a little "Dad" here but just consider this.
When I take the time to read for at least an hour every day I reap some benefits that I just don't recieve elsewhere. I will list a few now.
- After I'm done reading my mind feels "REFRESHED", not drained.
- I gain JOY from the materials I read.
- My mind feels SHARPER while I keep the habit of reading.
- I gain new PERSPECTIVES.
- I gain new KNOWLEDGE.
- My days tend to feel more FULFILLING.
- My linguistic capabilities seem more ENHANCED.
- An increased MEMORY may also be a side effect of reading.
There are many reasons to read. For myself the biggest reason would have to be the REFRESHED feeling that reading gives me. The whole experience can be really great if you read the books that truly peak your own interests. Some people may find that audio books work best. I retain more and focus better with a hardback. Just find what works for you.
Thanks for reading and I hope that this may inspire some of you to pick up this wonderful habit as well.
