Reading and imagination

By matross

Again the topic of reading worries me much. Unfortunately, people read not very much and that is why the majority of them are uninteresting interlocutors. Well, of course, people may also discuss movies, but constant watching them spoils your imagination. You lose skills to imagine things. You need to see everything with your own eyes. If you read a lot, you have an ability to listen to a rendering of a story attentively and it isn’t really boring for you. When you read books, you imagine the events, people, things and so on. These skills can be applied to the conversation as well. Those people, who watch movies only, usually don’t like to listen to the plot of a movie but prefer to watch it themselves. Of course, you may say, that it is always better to see everything with your own eyes and it refers not only to movies but also to all events which may occur, but I want to say that if you don’t read books, you become unable to dream. This is very serious, as it is very difficult to live in this world without this wonderful ability to dream. Our life is sometimes boring and monotonous and it is natural for a person to wish something unusual and extraordinary. It is so very understandable that it is impossible to get everything we want at once. What shall we do then? The answer is very simple: to dream! Everything, which is unavailable now and here can be reached in our dreams. As you see, reading is vital for our well-being and psychological health. Read books, mainly novels, love stories and fiction, develop your imaginations and dream about better life! This is my piece of advice to you, I have experienced it myself and am sure that you will appreciate it when you read more!
