BOOKS OR T.V.?

Here’s why!… Books stimulate your mind and arouse your imagination. Your mind is thinking without you being aware it is happening. If it is non-fiction, you are probably learning something new, or getting a viewpoint or perspective of the author. Novels may do that and more, because you focus on a character and put yourself in the personality or role the writer created for one of the characters in the story; you can even imagine you are that character. You may try to guess where the plot is going, and if you come across a paragraph or a page that is confusing or brilliant and wise, you can easily re-read it. Perhaps there is a similarity to reversing a DVD, but it is not quite the same.

P.S. You may ask, how come I did not include the mighty computer as a third category? That’s easy…once you have been bitten by a mouse it’s an addiction, and therefore, an unfair comparison.
