Books
are the portal to a world at large. It teaches, mesmerizes, and opens closed
crevices of your mind. Love savoring fictional Or non-fictional? Discrimination
is unfair, but whatever feeds your brain. Non-fictional builds your life,
fictional shape your thoughts. A win-win!
Our brains chop down the sequence
of words into several merely very interpretable themes and inhale them to
enrich our minds, motivates our lives, and provokes contemplations. Good thoughts enlighten your faces like a
golden aura and sunbeams.
But in life, people come and go.
Books stay. It is laughable to think we have control over the nitty-gritty of
our lives. However, how we perceive and respond is in our power. We can adore the people we have instead of
shutting them out.
Life passes; none can resist it.
But a good book experience instills our response. It compels us to cling to the
beauty of life, keep living version avatar of ourselves. It unfastens our
hearts to people to accept the differences instead of shutting them out. It
opens us to be willing to get to know them in the time we have. Cut to the
chase; the best book quotes will motivate your saddening life.
