Reading Habit stays with you for life...

I love reading books. Books can sometimes become companions. When reading books, I never get bored. I am sometimes using gadgets but more on the books. Books with amazing stories really interest me.

age and time are not bar to read books.Reading good books enhance knowledge and expand learning.

You are so correct,, I see my big brother,,same also with my son,, never bored,, always find something to read,,I wish I could do the same,

i totally agree!!! my mom told me before that even when i was just a kid i get lost in reading books that she bought for us and that i enjoyed it a lot. since then i read a lot of books. to be honest i like reading books than watching movies. i like to imagine what the characters look like and the place being described in the stories i'm reading. my mind gets an exercise while i'm reading and i love it.

I had reading habbit, when I was small.Not only I, my whole family had the reading habit. Still I remember that we fight for books. Now my children read a lot. I arranged small libraries in every rooms and proper light also. Now it is 01.13 am here. Still my son (8 years) is reading a magazine. (School holiday.)http://children-ourchildren.blogspot.com/2010/09/mini-library.html This is one of my home library.

I get bored with some books and I enjoy others. I like the books with a lot of pictures, but I had to read all of them even those too which were without pictures. I am an Engineering student so I had to read the books with the different signs and formulas in them. I read also the novel books. They are always a good time pass. When every I find time i try to read a new story novel.

that is really true... once you develop a reading habit, you won't ever lost it and it will stay with you until you die... that is so true for me as well... my parents had developed a good reading habit in me and it stays with me until now... and you wouldn't know how grateful i am to them for teaching me how to read since i was a child... take care and have a nice day...

Vwery true Kiran. Books provide the best relaxation one can ever hope for.Even when there is television, internet, books would never lose their real charm.

I think you may be right Kiran. I have always been a lover of books from childhood, always reading something! Now my children are all grown up and leading their own lives, I am happy to see that they too, have developed a love of books, and it makes me happy that I may have influenced them as they were growing up. I love books - they are a window to the world.

Hi kiran, you rightly said, once a person develops an interest in reading books he/she can not give up this habit for the whole life. Books are the best company of a person. When a person absorbed in readings books he or she can forget all sorrows and pains of life. Books can help the person to find out the new meaning of life. Yes some children have taken interest in books. This a good sign. But unfortunately now a days many children find more interest in TV games than reading books. They are becoming addicted to TV games. Parents should be cautious about their children in this regard.

I would have to agree with you one hundred percent. The thing is that reading is something that you really have to start at a young age. It is something that grows throughout life. I think that the fact that I enjoyed reading as a child, really set me up for life. I would not really enjoy reading as an adult if I did not enjoy it as a child. Then again, I was lucky enough to have access to books that I enjoyed. I think that some people have bad experiences and after they are done in school swear off reading for life. Which is a shame but it is unfortunately true.

Dear kiran, i agree with you, this reading habit, buying books, magazines probably made me a professor, more over in out time, there were no cell phones, internet etc, reading books was the only outlet, these days things have changed totally, the present generation kids are less interested in books, my view ofcourse.. Thank you so much for this discussion. Professor ‘Bhuwan’. . Cheers have a lucky day ahead. God bless you.

Hi kiran! You are definitely right about that. I for once have been into books ever since I was a child. My mom used to work for a department store where they sell loads of stuff and would you believe that the one place I love to hang out there (when I used to wait for her to finish her shift) was the children's books section! I don't know why but I love to read especially when they have colorful pictures! Then as I was growing up, I developed this habit of reading books especially story books then turned to pocket books, novels and books in a series. They say that those who love to read books prolong their life. I've read it in a website where some people conducted this study that the brain enables people to travel or use their imagination by just reading books and they say it prolongs your life by just reading. I cannot say that it's proven true but it does make one well-versed in English too if you love to read stories or books in English. It enhances your memory and it helps keep your brain going because you are reading and interpreting it at the same time.

Hi, kiran. What you say is so true. I can't remember a time when I didn't read. I grew up in a family that loved to read. As a child I remember my mother always reading, and we would read whatever she read. We just went down the line, mama would finish a book and my brother would pick it up. He finished the book and my sister was next in line, I was the youngest so I always got it last. It didn't matter what the book was, we just loved to read. I remember spending a lot of time at the library in town. It was my favotite place to be. It was a brand new world everytime I opened a new book. As we got older we all developed our own taste in reading but none of us ever lost our love for reading. It was passed on to our children also. Now they are all grown and still have the same love for books that we always had. Strange thing though, our childrens children do not have the same intrest in books that we did. None of them have a love for reading. So I don't know what that says for their generation. They were raised around book lovers but in this world of gadgets and technology, as some one else has said, they are drawn to more tangible things. I do not know what puts that love of reading in us, but, it is not always present in our children. Maybe it is just a sign of the times.

I do think that reading habits do stay with you for the most part. I do agree that it can stick with you for life, and that books can provide us a good companionship. I've been reading since I was a kid, and I've been hocked ever since. I just can't help it. It's been a good companion.

Hi their Reading is the good hobby. But personally I am not much good with reading. But still I am trying to develop my interest in it. So for that i have taken two novels from my sister too.. I started it with great exitement but after reading few pages i have just put them aside. I guess it will take time.

I once was hooked with books, specially the best-selling ones. I agree with you though. Books are great companions. You'd sort of get to be with another place, know someone, be in a situation you've never imagined, or anything by just reading. Aside from that, you could benefit greatly from it. By enhancing your reading skills you get to be more intelligent, tend to know more and more things, expose yourself to different helpful ideas, stuff like that you know. It also relaxes the mind boggled with too much stress. I hope technologies nowadays do not ruin further generation's interest with books. That might cause abrupt changes. Happy MyLotting!

I 90% agree with you kiran . 10% is for the circumstances that eye problem will occur (i hope not) that will stop somebody from reading.
