I find it amazing that reading
could arm you with a toolbox of ideas and alter the trajectory of your writing.
I think it is incredible how opening a book can alter your consciousness and
disrupt the way that you think. I am amazed at how literature can lavish
attention and generate a smile which is something to cogitate. The fact is
true, in every sense that a good library can cause the wheels of your brain to
start turning.
Isn’t it wonderful how much
reading can enhance the thoughts of writers as they make great strides towards
improving their craft? One page of content a day can give a person a daily dose
of positive energy and writing influence. One sentence or phrase could click so
much that you feel it necessary to write it down. A scribe’s mind is influenced
at the heartbeat of written dialogue.
I don’t mind being squandered
away by an F. Scott Fitzgerald prose or a Langston Hughes jazz poem. Better to
turn the pages on a subway ride than to have a digital device that is
magnetizing my eyes. No offense to those who like it better with a Nook but,
yesterday I had to take a second look thinking about the 14-year-old girl who
climbed onto the train tracks to get her phone and was hit by a train because she went
into a dangerous zone for a device that nowadays seem like the most important
thing. You read these things in the NY Times and it affects the ways that you
think.
The mere fact that reading
changes a person, is incredible to me. I took up English as a major thinking it
would jazz up my ability. For jazz is an expression of freedom in the manner
that writing makes you storm. Jazz is poetry to the ears bedazzled with trumpet
calls. Poetry turns to a song and a song into a dance. A book is like the
sweetest of the brain’s romance. And its pages the passionate escape between
the sheets wrapped up in lust. I am still
amazed how literature has helped my life adjust.
amazed how literature has helped my life adjust.
Change is good and you know
what I mean if you listen to a jazz song and the flow of it Greets your ear
like a waterfall. It gushes so sweet, you get the urge to just wade in it. Change is an inevitable thing. Each new day
brings with it life that we must be guided by. Read about your niche each day
and you will find changes in the way you flow. The way that you go about your
own passion because you found motivation in something you read. The words stuck
to your head like the lyrics of a song which can linger on for decades after
you heard it. Reading is not only fundamental, but it is worth it.
Speaking about change, this
world is need of change!
Let’s spread love without limitations. Though we are all different, reading and also seeing the world with our own eyes can enhance our knowledge of all the similarities from one culture to another that is shared, despite the differences.
We all have baggage, songs and dances. We are all striving to survive this world. We are all brothers and sisters in a sense and we should be united.
Please check out my original song and tune “Love No Limit” and let’s also pray for unity and love to be shared amongst all the people of this world. https://youtu.be/Ehbsut02E_g

Thank you for being a part of
my world and checking out the C installment to my April writing plan. I
consider you all family and I love you with all my heart. God bless you and
hope to vibe with you soon.
Reading is probably my favorite hobby. It really does let us venture into new worlds and new ways of thinking we would never otherwise discover.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you. One of the reasons I love the art of reading so much.
DeleteI always tell myself that without change, a caterpillar would never become a butterfly. Change is essential.

ReplyDeleteI am so with you about reading. I read constantly and really believe if more people did that and opened their minds to other people's lives and conditions, the world would be a better and more empathetic place.
ReplyDeleteIt truly is amazing how a book can change us. Don't even get me started on music. Music impacts my life and brings back so many memories of key points in my past.
ReplyDeleteReading opens the mind of anyone who opens a book. That is why education is so important in getting people to understand other people and cultures.
ReplyDeleteI love how reading a good book can instantly take me faraway to another place. Reading is da bomb, and it's so cool how they can change us. You're so talented!
