Maybe this way we have the chance to fill gaps in our lives, of these misguided souls! Maybe through this unique experience - reading - we can "taste" a little bit of the universe - other cultures, other continents, other times and ... ultimately, the same people! Maybe sometimes the book to find answers to unspoken questions but devouring, or simply curiosity prompts us to browse tabs make us a book and try and change course, "destiny". The answer surely will not find him soon. What is clear is that I almost read every night, and after closing the book, I feel like I regained lost energy during the day can be fraught with small things in daily. Is this the answer? why do you think is worth reading?

A good book is a gift for your readers move through a series of feelings and emotions, which culminates with a general feeling of satisfaction. Reading improves the knowledge of an individual bag. Reading literature or any non-fiction, enrich us with knowledge of different areas. This knowledge facilitates our participation in discussions and, often, help in decision making. Reading contributes to: * creativity * Memory * discipline * Set goals in life * Build self esteem. .Thanks.

Today we have computer but It cann't replace reading.In the long run ,reading on the computer is quite another thing ,as compared with reading book.Here we keep the tradition of reading book,perhaps It does with the tradition in which a good scholar will make an official.At any rate,reading can shift our quality and enrich our knowledge.As the saying goes,Reading is always profitable.

My guess, reading books online, browse a'll forget the book! I like how it smells like a book, the printing of the paper, I like to have a beautiful library, and an increase in my salary at least once every carte.Imi like to make the notification, to emphasize in a quote ... plus computer and so we take a good bit of time, tired eyes, better not read a book in the shade of a tree? Thanks.

For me, reading is a way of 'escape' other than learning. Escape from the harsh reality of life and exploring the possibilities that there is a life worth living somewhere out there. without reading, we will remain as colossal morons not knowing what is beyond our glimpse.Wondering what is like to be in a different world, in a different life. Through reading, many eyes can be open to the a wider description of the world and life itself., both the beautiful and ugly sides of it. If there is one effective eye opener other that true experience, it is reading.

Unfortunately I do not take the time out to read as often as I use to. It truly does broaden the mind and stimulates imagination. I suppose life has gotten way to busy for me these days to continue to stimulate me with imagination.

Reading allows you to engage your imagination as you develop a picture in your mind of what is going on. Active readers are less likely to develop memory problems later in life. Reading exposes us to other ways of life and other view points. REading helps us find answers.

We read that we, human beings, we are always looking for meaning ... in everything that surrounds us, what happens to us, what we see and live. It's worth reading for that enriches our life with events that I have not personally experienced. By our being not only blood flow but also words! And the most beautiful and well-chosen words ONLY IN BOOKS!Thanks.

Reading is important part of our life, it is there we are informed, warned, educate our self and received instructions and soon. It is just sad that there are people who are lazy of reading, even simple instruction of the items they are buying they cannot read it, after wards they realized that they cannot use the item upon learning the labels, and it's too late, so reading is important.

Indeed, many of us have forgotten how to read a book is, as you translated into character for a while and how are you "stealing action. " It's their loss. I noticed that the society we live Internet has replaced almost everything. May read how many young people today? Very few and they are probably a teacher required by one grade and subject. Of course, not to mention the convenience (it is too much trouble to go to the library, where more money should be allowed to give and I need to read further. How much time wasted) so much of us think. Finally ... all the esteem and respect for those who like reading, and for those who do not like: do not know you're losing, you can not feel satisfaction that it gives you a card. Thanks.

Apart from learning and exercising your imagination I guess it helps to keep the brain active as they say the brain is a muscle ans if you don't use it you lose it...I myself have never been for reading but I guess it is to be able to relax in that way.

It pays to read the enormous number of reasons, even for simply adore words and meanings held by them, but a noble argument that deserves to be read because we can. And it's true, we are blessed because we believe we can read, knowing that he did, thousands of people worldwide who would like it, but is somehow unable to do physical or psychological. Reading, prove that we care, and more, we prove that we are concerned about the soul, not just the body!

i think that reading is the best form of entertainment because it is portable and you can take a book with you anywhere you go, plus you can get caught up in the pages and feel what the people feel in the pages (whether it be fiction or non fiction)

Book's guide to smile, dream, power, knowledge, beauty, mystery, and truth itself. We read, because it helps us to know his world and people around us ... because they are written by people inspired about people and worlds past, present and future who have access only in this way sometimes ...Thanks.

I am a little sad that I dont get to read more these days. Reading helps you to maintain a good vocabulary and stimulates the imagination. I find that reading is one of those things that becomes quite addictive. At first, it can be quite hard to get into the routine of reading, but once you've read a couple of chapters, you just cant put it down.

Yes, we read because, it is worth investing in education and our culture. Reading is a necessity. It keeps us alive, active, and especially knowledgeable, sensitive, relaxed, inspired, detached from everything. Really worth to read to reach the soul, even for a few moments, infinite. Thanks.

We should read for all the reasons you listed and more. We learn so many things from books. Reading fiction, I think, gives us the opportunity to live more than one life. This is almost like surpassing one's limits. The pleasure of reading is great as well. I always feel refreshed after reading something I enjoy.

Yes,It is worth reading because it is pointless to dwell on technological developments or material satisfaction knowing how many we bring the spiritual side of life, sometimes (perhaps too often) forgotten. It is worth reading because we always find joy in a book sheets, descriptions of moments experienced by us, or descriptions of times that we wished to live. A reading is a valuable source of exercise empathy, because we can play multiple roles, even as a reader of good books from which to learn more than we ever have imagined.

I had quit school when I finished my junior middle school,but after some days' hard working in the fields,i found that reading was so fine.So i got back to school to bite books again.Though i couldn't go to college later,but i could see that at least reading helped me extend my knowledge,helped me with finding a job and so on.

Well, today is worth reading just to enrich your knowledge. In my country, we become like those who have many books, school, high school, college faculty over, do not benefit even one job. Many have happened that, just stay with diplomas in their pockets. About with reading, I think it's worth reading because ...... dive into a new world .... make new friends always learn something new we find ourselves we find "big secret" of humanity, each book reveals an event in human history escape from everyday detach ourselves from the century of speed a book is always a topic of discussion We can let your imagination run wild we can write we like 100% is a useful activity is the relationship between them and us! Thanks.

reading help us a lot, by means of reading we can be updated, learn, and explore. I love reading specially if its about facts things here in the world. Being updated is good enough for you to be aware, prepared and be safe in all days of your life. Learn can boost your potentials and your knowledge in everyday life. And explore is needed for us not to be idiot in some details or somethings in this world. Thats are my reasons why i love to read.

I agree with you. It's worth reading, because, more and more people do not read! It's worth reading, because, we need books, they are our spiritual food! It's worth reading, because, in today's culture is left somewhere behind ... It's worth reading, because, education may be so, reading as much! It's worth reading, because, as man alive, still learning! It's worth reading, because, we need more education and civilization! It's worth reading, because, we have many interesting books and so many wonderful authors! It's worth reading, because, we have children and they have to follow our example! Thanks.

I envy you for having the time to read every night. It's been days since I'd last read a book other than my textbooks and I miss the feel and smell of the pages of a book and the way I get sucked into the story.

As a child I love to read, and what I do now, every day, and normally I try to convey this love for books and my daughter. I think it's that easy and beautiful way to get you off of the reality around us, everyday, to enter the world of imagination, to feel otherwise how could you be if you did not read!
