Reading? What does it do to us? To me, reading brings me to some places I have never been, culture I have never observed, happenings I never experienced that has taken place years ago. It affects me to change my way of thinking, to be strong, to be brave in trying new ideas, to be appreciative of the effort of the generations that have come before us. It gives me pleasure, assurance that I am not alone in my struggles and hardships, that other people have passed this way too and overcome. Do you love to read? What sort of materials do you read? Go ahead and share so others may be encouraged

I have never really been a readerbut I can imagine how people could get so absorbed in a story that it is like going to another world, I guess i don't have a good enough imagination for that but i think the internet does the same for me.

Thanks for sharing your thought. Love for reading can be cultivated. But thanks to the internet, it makes reading enjoyable because of bigger than life audio visual adition Any story in particular that has really been memorable to you or touched you to the core of your being?
