My book collection
It was October of 2008 when I first started reading and collecting novels. At first it was about helping me have better sleep then eventually turned into something more. I learned to love reading novels. At first I just focus on a single genre-Fantasy fiction, however as I 'mature' on reading, I started venturing into others genres as well. Such genre include science fiction, epic, satire, inspirational, and many more. To date, I still fancy reading and collecting books.
They say that through reading, people travels. I agree to that notion. As I read stuff, I imagine myself being in the book. I see myself as a part of what I read. I learned stuff that experience itself may forgot to teach me. I learned to imagine, to visualize.
I consider my books as my trusted friends. They never fail to amuse me, they never fail to give advise. Though I cannot talk to them, they can talk to me. Not through spoken words but through written ones. They keep me company and they teach me how to be a better me.
People should realize how helpful books to us. They are not just luxury to people but a need to the mind. Books inspire, teach, guide, advise, what else?... I don't know, possibly anything. Books are silent friends waiting for us to approach them.
