Nevertheless, there are a lot of things that you, me and us can gain from literature. LITERATURE……
W idens our imagination by taking us to new places and different situations
O ffers us the meaning of life from someone else’s eyes through fiction
and non-fiction
R enders us astonishing plots with heart-warming themes that eternally breathe to touch human spirit
L eads us to observe society from afar and lives of other people at other times
D eepens our understanding of history, arts and culture across
nations generations ago
L essens our pitfalls and mistakes in life through moral and spiritual lessons
I mproves our linguistic competence and encourages us to appreciate the
power of language
T ies and connects us to other studies from history to sociology to philosophy to economics or science
E ntertains us with an amazing array of characters and their memorable lines
R escues us from boredom and elevates us above the mundane
and predictability of life
A rouses our curiosity, awakens our spirit and lets us in a little unknown
bit of our souls
T ests our mental processes by decoding man’s motives and values in life
U nleashes the inner artist in us by giving us profundity of thoughts and
richness of emotions
R eaches the innermost core of our hearts through a much higher
dimension truths in life
E ncourages us to understand humanity by seeing semblances of other’s traits in ourselves
