In the same way how a body needs physical excercise and a healthy diet, a mind needs meditation and reading for the wellbeing and improvement. In other words reading is the mental exercise for mind and books are the exercising machines in the gymnasium called library.

As according to Francis Bacon, reading makes a full man, the meaning, sources and uses of reading are worth to discuss in an era when mental health of most of us is declining.

The action of realizing and concentrating of someone's imaginations or informations over a topic through a printed media by words is reading. This printed media can be a book, brochure, magazine, newspaper, an article in social media or a site like Steemit or even a poster or a leaflet. The significance is, a man who reads something becomes more knowledgeable on a topic than he was before.

Short stories take us to a new world through 5 or 6 pages while we are made to live in someone else's life for a longer period by novels. We may not be able to feel a thrill in real lives like the thrill given by fictions. Curiosity is improved by reading stories while poems increase our creativity. Newspapers also have a seperate fan base. Thanks to internet anything can be read on wikipedia, wikihow or quora at a distance of a fingertip.

So reading is like a companion whom we can travel anywhere with tangling hands and come home again safely. That is why when a reader of "Madolduwa" book go to Madolduwa island for the first time, it will be his second trip as he already has gone to the island on that boat with Upali and Jinna.

I think even most of us are like that. Thank you!😊

Does reading make man a complete man? Good article worth reading. Yes it should take to read something by an intelligent author who brings meaning to life.

I also believe the fact that to be a full man we have to read something worth and not everything. A good point.

I am sure that, I am the worst reader here and am well aware how important to fix this issue and be average level reader. Even though It always ran away from me gradually, but I could manage my time in-order to spend some time reading on the internet.
I hope I can fix this issue in near future.

I am sure that, I am the worst reader here

I also don't read books these days like I used to do before. But we all read articles on steemit. Let's be happy about that.

During my childhood I used to read lots of books, such as T.B Ilangarathna's "Aba Yaluwo" , Wilmbeetha , Enid Blyton's "Famous five" and Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock homes book series etc. But the time moves on, the habit of reading books were disappeared, we got stucked to exams and jobs. But during the last years Covid vacation, I read some story books after a big break. Somehow I think we should keep the habit of reading books forever.

Yes that reading habbit of most of us has lost unfortunately due to this busyness. I also got a chance to read some books in covid vacation and think now I am again on the track.

The least I do is read books. For me it was a very boring thing. But now I am used to reading articles because of steemit. Actually reading these articles increases my knowledge. But I really like to read a book. I have to make an effort for that.

I am glad you read articles in here though you rarely read books. Yes once you start to read books you will love it.
