"A mind needs books as a sword needs a whetstone, if it is to keep its edge.”
Nothing beats the feeling of reading books. A good book can transport you into a world you didn’t know existed. Reading should be promoted more and more. We should do this by introducing books to children when they are still little. It will instill the culture of reading in our future generations.
For years reading was the only form of personal entertainment for most people. Of all the skills one will ever learn growing up, none are more important than reading. Reading is an opportunity to learn something new, expand your vocabulary, increase knowledge and wellness, lower stress, and discover your inner-self.
According to the One World Literacy Foundation, a person who can read can educate themselves in any area of life they’d like to. In today's times when we find ourselves surrounded with new information, reading, and more importantly, critical reading is the best way to rationalise and relate to further information.
And if you’re one of countless people who don’t make a habit of reading regularly, you might be missing out.
Reading has survived the years, and it has a number of benefits. So why is reading good for us?
