WHY YOUR BOOK SHELVE SHOULD BE DRESSED THAN YOUR WARDROBES

                                                                       

                      A  great book they say is worth a thousand lectures and sermons. 

       I remember my days in my secondary school,  i was a member of what we called THE JETS CLUB (Junior Engineers and Technicians club), we were taught advanced topics in Engineering, the school do invite in some weeks Motivational speakers. In one of the clubs session, the speaker said to us and i quote "You see this suite am wearing? Its the only one i have and i don't mind because my book shelve is well dressed than i am" He had a library of his own.
He was more concerned to equip his library with quality books than he was on equipping his appearance, because he had discovered early that a man is not only defined by his appearance but what he has to offer intellectually.  And only through deep reading culture do man develop intellectually.
     Reading has a lot of advantages to offer to young people both now and in the future , in fact the latter is were you will discover that you have built  a treasure for yourself by reading earlier in your life, but reading is a continues process and no one can ever read everything, which is the more reason why you have to read as much as you can.


    While you are on the quest of your reading adventure; i will like you to note that  reading is like a food there are junk and wholesome books. Because reading has evolved because of technology and the internet we have to understand that deep reading goes beyond the regular online news articles and timelines, because the internet create too much distraction for deep reading we should be able to find a balance between deep reading and online articles.
Studies has shown that those who read hyperlink texts comprehend less than those who read plain texts (text books).

• Deep reading is vigorous exercise from the brain and increases our real-life capacity for empathy.

• Reading is vital in developing the mind and imaginations

• Non readers or poor readers have low opinion on themselves and their abilities.

• Reading improves your discipline and memory

• Reading brings out self esteem and creativity

• Reading increases vocabulary

• Reading  develops the unconscious mind which springs out in the conscious mind.
