#4 Reading Books > Watching films

in #life8 years ago (edited)

Books changed my life. Starting reading books is one of the 10 key events in my life.

Just an art

Books can express an author, a historical age, an eternal human problem, etc. The books are a way to make something immortal. 

Writing is the oldest way to save and share information. And it is the most used nowadays. Books, magazines, databases, newspapers, websites, laws, labels, tickets, etc. all is written. 

Why are these symbol on the pages or in the virtual space so special?

Because reading them you create your own world. You have your own way how to interpret a book and what you will get and use it.

For instance, I like reading books for personal development and inspiration. Some people think they are something like guides and are boring but I find in them practical tips from successful individuals. I don't like novels but they are the best genre of literature for someone.

There is something for everyone's taste. You can see here how I realized that.

Do you like reading?

Today many people state it is better to watch movies than reading books. I like doing both but these are the reasons I think reading gives you more than the movies:

  1. Many movies are created on the base of books. I have never heard a movie to be better than the book on which it is directed.
  2. Reading a book you create your own picture in your mind. This picture is unique and is built by the associations in your head.
  3. I didn't like reading but when I found out the type of books I like, they have changed my mindset. This new mindset build the principles according to which I live right now.


What kind of books do you love reading? Do you think books are better than movies or the vice versa? Which is your favorite book and why?
