Everybody knows that reading is good to us in every respect, but very few people like to read. It is because most young persons prefer to spend their time on pleasure instead of reading and middle aged people, who even like to read, do not have enough time to read. For old aged, reading is not practical to them. Their eye sight is weak and unable to see small characters in the book. Besides, what they read is no more useful in their sun set life.
This is the fact so far as we can see. The books which are educational are only adopted in school for education purpose only. In the book stores, most books are of pleasure books, and novels, plus health books to those who wish to keep good health and live a long life.
In rich family, in order to show their noble quality, there is a big private library with thousands and thousands books in their book shelters. But, actually the owner can only read very few books due to limit of their time.
However, books are a treasure of wisdom and we should find time to read as much as possible for preparation of facing problems which fall upon us every day. As how to read books, it depends on our age. Young person should read books about how to live a progressive life and middle aged people read books of philosophy to take responsibility in their prime age. As to sun-set group, it may not be necessary to read unless they like.
