The Crucial Importance of Picking Up A Book
Copresco’s Overnight Lite Vol. 35 No. 2
Reading Could Save Your Life…
-Personal Visions
“…Reading is a vehicle to create visions that are…uniquely ours. Reading in print has a haptic quality that connects us to the visions that we create in our heads.…Reading affords us the chance to be alone with our thoughts and gives us time to think and process other people’s perspectives.”
-Too Darn Loud
“We gain perspective within the solitude of reading. The world is too darn loud and sitting quietly without digital intervention has healing power. It is peaceful, uninterrupted, and nobody is doing it. Therefore, it is absolutely a positive competitive advantage and enriching on so many levels.”
-Your Own Experience
“When we read our brains translate the descriptions, places, and things into pictures, and we‘re imagining how the characters are feeling. We use our own experiences to imagine how we would feel in that same situation. It’s not painted for us like it is the digital world. When we read, we do the painting.“
