When we are little we are taught to read and we are encouraged to continue reading throughout our academic training, since the presence of texts is constant in schools. We know that schools are efficient in teaching us to read, but we must affirm that learning to read is not enough, it is necessary that we learn to put reading as a habit.

Having reading as a habit is aggrandizing and constructive. This is because reading gives us vocabulary, stimulates our mind, our critical sense, our ability to communicate, our writing and our reasoning. These are essential characteristics in the life of a citizen who is aware of his responsibilities and rights.

Reading is a habit that empowers people. A society of readers is an educated society that will not be easily deceived by broken political promises and by rulers and lying ideologies that do not know how to govern and instruct. This is because the habit of reading provides vast knowledge and strong arguments to counter any attempt at deception.

Therefore, we can say that we must instruct our youth to read. Encourage reading for pleasure, out of curiosity, for fun and not out of obligation. We must encourage reading as something inherent in our construction as thinking and rational human beings.

Aleksandr [31]

Read the stanza from "The Raven."

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,

And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.

From my books surcease of sorrow–sorrow for the lost Lenore–

For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore–

Nameless here for evermore.
