There is something wrong with
the way
we learn today.

Sometimes you can get written
words
to speak to a deeper level than spoken words.
While reading, you're at your
own
pace; free to chew on a phrase and savor a point well made or to
spit in
disgust at something that's just plain wrong.
While reading, you are free
to
deliberate.
Reading also allows
you to skim the things you have heard before, and gives
you the freedom to re-read something that you didn't
understand the first time.
While reading, you are
more at ease, less defensive, and can make faces and rude
comments without insulting anyone. You can even awwww and
ohhhh if the mood strikes you without embarrassment.
Without the
distractions of personality, you are more open to ideas.
The essays, stories,
and poetry in this section are keys that can unlock new
avenues of exploration for your mind. Buckle up, drive
safe.
