We have to make a fully focused effort to avoid losing the gains we have made and the knowledge we have acquired. Reading is one sure way to help avoid any loses in our intellectual prowess. The benefits of reading have been touted for hundreds of years. You can live vicariously in another town, country and even time. You can learn about cultures, climates and scientific discoveries. Business acumen, teaching skills, painting skills and writing skills can be studied from reading in books. The power that a book has to engage our minds is awesome. Books also have the power to help us temporarily tolerate our pains better as well. We when get immersed in a book full of the experience that we are seeking, the body benefits. Our mind gets a chance to do something other than work on receiving the millions of pain signals that flood it daily. Our minds relish the moments that we are engaged in pleasant, non painful activities and reading is one that we can easily take advantage of. Good books are easy to find. |
