Living in a society where there is a kind of culture in which they makes us believe that reading is a boring obligation rather than being one of the greatest pleasures of life (such as eating, such as sleeping), it's extremely common and strangely OK to see people say things like, "Why would I need to read The Lord of the Rings? I've already watched the movies! :D"
In this thread you, as an enthusiast about reading and a witness of the wonderful feeling of creating parallel universes through your neurons, will make a "list" of 1, 2, 3 reasons why a person should put their electronic equipments (or the wellknown "I do not have time for it." excuse) in the maximum security safe, and forget its password
here we go:
- When you read a book, you create your very-own-personal movie, full of scenes with feelings related to the five senses (the more you read, the more you can create skills to, for example, touch an object being described in the story, even smell it lmfao) which, by the way, are far better than the movies created by producers concerned with putting cliches to please the "general public", attracting box office
- After spending some time reading and creating skills to understand the "verbal codes", something happens in our head that makes us think better, not only about things related to speech but also our abstract thinking - you will have a more pronounced opinion related to all the things in the world and you will find more creative and effective solutions to the problems around you
make the world a better place, make your list :¬:
