Reading - it's not just for librarians! Benefits to reading are many and varied. From the time we are read to, up to the time we need the larger print, reading demonstrates its rewards! It keeps the mind active and engaged into our old age. It takes us places we may not be able to physically go. It touches the spiritual, social and mental aspects of our lives ... and yes, even the creative juices start to flow! You see, these realms all intertwine. A reading routine brings enjoyment, entertainment, stress relief, relaxation, escape, and rejuvenation into our worlds, and it stimulates the right side of the brain, exercising it, if you will. We are helping ourselves, although it may not be so obvious. Learning. Comprehension. Focus. Understanding. Independence. All these are improved. Which brings me to my next point: it's like a ripple effect! Leading to us becoming more self assured and confident! Thus also impacting how decision making becomes easier, life's challenges and difficulties are a bit less stressful, and we are more balanced!
Why not indulge in reading? Reading - it's a routine worth having!
Quote:
“The greatest gift is a passion for reading. It is cheap, it consoles, it distracts, it excites, it gives you knowledge of the world and experience of a wide kind. It is a moral illumination.” ~ Elizabeth Hardwick
Helpful Hint:
It's quite easy to find reading material at nominal cost. The library is a wonderful source for books, literature, magazines or reference books. If you are one to buy books, how about donating them to a library, your community, resident homes or churches, after you have read them?
Humor:
Which building in town has the most stories? The Library!
