Books are an astonishing feat. They transcend thousands of years, thousands of killometers, and unbreakable social barriers. Through books, one can intimately learn the innermost beliefs and carefully pondered thoughts of another. One can learn from and have an intimate conversation with any personality and any mind that ever lived. I am in complete awe of how powerful books are.
I love reading books! It is a wonderful treat for my mind as I feel it expand and gain an always deeper insight into the reality around me.
