Today is World Book and Copyright Day and I wanted to participate in the I read because initiative . For some it is a useless campaign, but for me talking about books and reading and promoting reading is important and should be done often. It's also pleasant, so why not? We already know that in Italy there are few readers , but we don't know why people don't read . Perhaps, if each of us explained the reasons that push us to read, something would be resolved, someone could appreciate those reasons and make them their own. Everyone has their own reasons, just as non-readers have theirs for not reading. Which? Because they don't have time, which we know is just an excuse, because they prefer to ruin their brains with video games and smartphones, which we know is true. Or because they don't have it in their blood, in their DNA, it's not part of their culture.
But here I don't have to talk about others, why they read or why they don't read. Here I have to explain why I do it. I read because… … I like reading And this, if you allow me, is a more than Special Data valid reason. This answer also generates another question: why do you like reading? The answer, however, is contained in this article, fragmented into all 15 reasons why I read. ... he who reads is above others Seeing someone with a book in his hand is like seeing a person who lives on a higher level in society, who belongs to a higher culture . Is reading a bit snobbish? Yes why not? We begin to look down on those who don't read. Maybe he wants to come up here, who can say? But don't kick them back down, please.I can live multiple lives Every time I read a book, I live the life of the protagonist . I'm no longer me, but I'm another character. It also happens when we watch a film: don't you happen to identify with the protagonist who is about to be torn to pieces by someone? Don't you side with the hero of the story, even if he has just committed the robbery of the century? … I want to learn more A book read is a lot of extra information that we record in our memory. Not all the words remain, but the main concepts remain.
The story remains, the information remains, the notions remain. By reading, I always learn something. … I want to know other worlds The thrill of starting a new book and a new story: who has never felt it? Only goats who don't read. For me, reading also means this: being able to enter other and unexpected realities. And this always happens, even if I don't read a fantasy or science fiction novel. … I want to write better Can someone who loves writing not read? Reading and writing are so connected that one cannot exist without the other. Thanks to the many readings I have done, I have improved my writing . I also had many ideas for writing stories, but above all I got to know storytelling techniques better and learned to recognize the secrets of some writers, the ones whose works I have read the most.
