Find your compatibility with books!!!
Yesterday while enjoying a movie scene made me left amused enough to write. So, this post is about Books!
Well, to start, I would like to tell about that scene. It is from Bollywood, widely appreciated flick – #OMG! #OhMyGod. Amazing movie. To know more – click here!
Well, in the scene the guy (who is a pure #atheist) has filed a case against #God for destroying his Shop and against investment companies to pay him back the money. Under “ #ActOfGod ” statement He sends the notice to #Temples, #Churches and #Mosques for the same. While in the court, he is asked to present a writing by God stating his shop was actually destroyed by God. Then only he will get #justice .
At his home he is sitting with another guy portraying as Lord Krishna in an avatar which he fails to recognise. He is advised to read #BhagwatGita to find answer. To which he replies :
who will read this ! Its such a heavy book and their isn’t even a single photograph!
This was amusing. Though, the actor went on to read Bhagwat Gita, then #Bible and #Quran and he get all his answers but it did left me to realize that their are actually people who don’t read . For few among them, the reason is same as the above; for others reading; studying and they feel they are back to school, for others – “I prefer #movies” And for the remaining, time constraints.
Yeah! We are busy. Including the time when we are busy just being busy. And, frankly speaking we can always snatch up the time for reading! Reading a simple book! Exploring a new thing which will actually leave you wiser! Wiser every time!
As statement mentioned in #RobinSharma’s work piece “The Greatness Guidance” If you eat, you are left fed. But, if you read you are left wiser.
There is seriously no reason, explanation or justification required for telling why you should read!
I know you all will agree.
There is also one more point I would like to make. It also depends upon what you read and what you are extracting from it!
For example, I have a very amazing friend of mine who was very keen on reading a #biography on a #mafia #don. He read it ! And on asking why was it so necessary? To this, he beautifully replied, though what he did is wrong but I want to know how his brain worked of the grey characters of the world who despite of being not much educated and having not even minimum schooling education was able to conquer the world and make people dance on their tunes
I hope I have made the points clear. Now, I am going to list just a few points by which you can include reading as your daily activity.
A. Go step by step ! You don’t have to exactly pick the lengthiest, smallest scribbling book. You can start with the simple and sweet books. There are lot of books written only to encourage people to read.
B. Hey, you can pick up the movie-ed books. There are ‘n’ numbers and you can pick any of yours favourite flick ! You will be mesmerized to get the simple details excellently potrayed. Being aware of the movie, your #imagination is able to run faster and in sync with the book.
The best among them has been The Harry Potter series. I myself started the same way !
C. It doesn’t have to be fictional always. Someone you truly inspire ! Its always beautiful to know there history, there struggles and make a sense of there life from there angle !
D. Neither helped you! Okay. One more idea: pick any school book. I still have my 7th grade book. Its full of short stories from great writers. And, this actually make me wonder, wow I had an amazing collection which I read with pressure of examinations with concerns for marks.
So, thats it for today.....
Hope you all enjoyed reading this post. I would love to know which was your #first pick and it never became the last one !
Till then keep rising, shining and reading!
Love to all
