From the time I learnt how to read,books have been my constant companion.
I can read ,standing in a crowded platform . Reading in places ,which are outside my comfort zone is a my favourite brain workout .
Focus ,read ,understand.Become immune to the surrounding chaos.
I read ,ebooks when Rai sleeps in my lap.
I read books when I travel .Anywhere,anytime wherever I can.
I never visit the beauty parlour without my stash of books .
Waiting is fun for me, if I have my favourite books.
In the middle of chaos reading books calm me down.Even today when politics and economy both are making headlines, books helped.
I love getting books as gifts.Now blogging has made that even better.
Discovering new blogs ,reading them ,are like finding cookies hidden in moms kitchen .
If I didn’t read I would not have made it as a doctor.
If I didn’t read ,I would never have found your wonderful blogs.
If I didn’t read ,till my eyeballs fell off, I wouldn’t have managed to set up my blog .
If I didn’t read, I wouldn’t have my balcony garden.
If I didn’t read, I wouldn’t have found my hubby in medical college.
If I didn’t read I would never have the chance to read all the wonderful books stacked in libraries .
How does this habit of reading help ?
- Reading helps you write better.
- It improves vocabulary .
- It’s the best way to learn and increase knowledge .
- It builds memory.
- It helps you develop logical reasoning.
- It helps decrease stress
- It’s a form of mindfulness therapy.
- It gives you mental stimulation which is the best way to stop ageing.
I feel thankful for this love of reading.

I used to have a serious passion for reading but reading textbooks kind of ruined that for me. However, I do LOVE to take books on vacation and sit on the beach and read!

I am a voracious reader and read a lot. reading in fact has given me a wider knowledge than I could have otherwise obtained.
Heather Lilia says
If I didn’t read, I’d have never become a blogger. It really is crazy to think about!

Reading is my favourite habit too! I have a habit of reading at night before sleeping. I am glad that my daughters also love reading and elder one is an avid reader. Books can be our best friends.

I really need to link up with you girls next time.
Well, I wish I still ‘read’ my focus is more on tv. (blah!)
But, so happy that I still read blogs…else I would be such a vegetable.
I have read most of the good books, ( Gone with the wind, Kane and Abel etc)

I would have been nothing without books. I’ve loved to read since even before entering school, and, at one time, I even wanted to be a librarian.

That’s a nice dream to have Alana. Glad you enjoyed this.

Shalzzz says
Ha! I love reading too. Thanks to Mamma and her sisters, I had about 3k books to choose from. They were avid readers – from Mills and Boon to Shakespeare, they had it all covered. I love reading both in kindle and paperbacks. While traveling or at night in bed, kindle is a gift from above ๐ Awesome prompt. Will participate this time ๐
dramrita says
Thanks Shalini do participate. It’s awesome that you had 3000 books to read growing up.I haunted second hand and first hand libraries.
Reading is a blessing
Tina Basu says
Reading is one habit that keeps me sane. I can get lost in the world of books and I find reading therapeutic. I can read in a crowded bus too!
Blair Villanueva says
Through reading books, it makes you smart like you’ve taken a Master or PhD degree ????
