"They call reading simple-
just words marching across a page,
meanings laid bare and waiting.
But those who say this have never truly read,
never lost themselves between the lines
where each page turn launches an expedition
into uncharted worlds.

Reading is an odyssey-
each character a companion,
each chapter a new shore.
We emerge transformed,
our minds expanded by perspectives
we never knew we needed.

So when you next open a book,
don't just scan the words-
let them seep into your soul,
let them breathe and pulse
until the story lives 
not just on the page
but within you."          ~Lovereading
