Books are a person’s best friend; this is not just an expression but truly a lesser-known reality. Rigorous reading can have life-changing but positive effects on a person. Many people might consider reading as a boring hobby but those who are indulged in it knows that life is incomplete without reading. There are two ways to learn the world, or say, the working of this world- one is by experiencing itself and the other is to read about it.
By reading one will learn various feelings and character of life which otherwise is more or less, impossible.
The impact of reading
As we know, with advancing technology, children do nothing more than playing video games or chatting on the social media. They are caught up in a virtual fiasco which puts a restraint on their growth, both spiritually and mentally. Reading, however, will only grow him in every way possible. This is so because he/she will not just remain in their characters but feel how the other gender or relationship feels. This will generate a sense of empathy in the reader. Reading is a great way to expand one’s knowledge. There is no way that a person could get into vast depths of any topic, scientific research or geographical/biological discoveries other than reading about it.
Studies from big universities have shown that people (irrespective of their ages) tend to be happier and more content within themselves as compared to those who do not read. Therefore, it is safe to say that reading makes you a better person.
Versatility of Reading
Reading does not merely means reading a novel. Reading could be related to anything, words printed in any form or genre are always informational and leave you in a better state of mind that before. You can read poetry, sports magazine, fashion books, romantic or thriller novels or books about discoveries etc. Start reading now for it could change your life and the ones near to you.
