I am one person who really enjoys reading leisure books and writing stuff, I write according to my mood and reading always ease my mind when a lot has happened. My worry now is that it seems like people are no longer reading that much or maybe lost interest, I strongly believe that every little thing you read will surely help you grasp something new to learn. Learning doesnt only occur for academic matters only but socially and spiritually you should be intelligent too, if you lack social intelligence your academic intelligent is nothing and lacking spiritual intelligence the one which is at the top of them all because spiritually we must be strong and try in all means to take care of our souls, reading your bible once in a while will help you grow as it is a motivator and helps us avoid the bad things and understand the meaning of life, of which is important. Ask me why i am saying this, the reason is that social life is the one that helps us in many things, interacting and getting to know how to help the next person or maybe support the person, knowing right from wrong and again learning what life is, we in a society were fame and bragging is the main thing we are looking at, what if we just look at the things that are happening around us like poverty, suicide, etc.
We need eachother for this world to be a better place, are we really going to be happy if the future fails? or is it all about you? I would honestly be happy the day i die if i can see a peaceful world with children who will make sure that they are always updated on what is happening and knowing that reading just a mere pamphlet will help you in many ways, I believe reading shouldnt be a hobby but something we often do, by doing that we will learn a lot, it all starts by knowing and understanding what xenophobia is and why it is happening, and understanding why loadshedding is affecting south africa, that way we get to help our minds grow and able to learn. Ignorance and being careless is something we all dont need because this life this days is fast, at least be on the same level with it or maybe a step ahead. As youth it is up to us to make sure that we make reading something important just the way our parents made sure we see education as the key to success, so read and tell more people to read.
You dont have to read a lot a day, reading at least 50 words a day helps a lot, again new words are developed everyday and dictionaries are getting advanced, they may sound bombastic but are you interested?, learning 5 new words everyday which were developed will help you and will really help your vocabulary. It all starts in your mind and will eventually see it as a habit, some DNAs are created by us, and all those dominent bad traits can be resessive, if we can avoid them by trying to dominate the good ones. It is really up to you.
REMEBER the future need you.
