It’s always interesting to explore the world. Whether it’s the landscape, the culture, the creatures, or the people, everything that comprises the world is of different forms. Each and every entity is distinct.
Likewise, we humans possess unique characteristics. We are not only diverse in terms of region, culture, or language, but we are also distinct on an individual level.
The way we think and express ourselves differs from person to person.
This is the factor that gives rise to various ideologies, cultures, traditions, languages, and so on.
Though we are different from each other in multiple aspects, we are still connected and can work together.
There is one major reason which sets humans apart from other living beings. That’s the continuous development we are going through. From the beginning of civilization till now, humans have discovered and invented numerous things. We tend to keep updating and changing every day in different aspects.
The world is large and diverse, with many things visible and a lot more things hidden in mystery, which are yet to be discovered. Also, not all that is visible is known.
The lessons that you can learn are infinite.
Knowledge is like an ocean, and out of it, what you have learned is just a single drop.
So there is a lot more stuff you are yet to learn and discover.
But then the next question arises.
Where and how to learn?
Who is the best mentor?
Who tells the truth?
Who to follow?
Before answering these questions, you have to realize something.
You can learn from everyone and everything. Each and every person we come across has a lesson to teach us. But it doesn’t mean that you have to blindly follow others. No matter how great a person might be, they can’t be right all the time.
While discussing a topic, multiple views arise and each person comes up with different ideas and facts. Some might be true, and some may not be true. So it’s not advisable to go by others’ words.
Give it a thought and ask yourself. You have to observe well and then make a decision.
You are the best mentor for yourself, and books are the best companions in that process of learning.
Read through the text, and understand and express it from different perspectives.
The more you read, the more you explore yourself.
Not only will you gain knowledge, but also your personality will develop.
The way you perceive the world changes and improves.
There will be a better understanding of things, and over time you’ll excel in decision-making.
May it be a novel, a documentary, or a volume of science theory, whatever it may be, each book has got something to tell you and enlighten you. Reading is not only for pleasure but also serves as a platform for learning.
A book is a thing that can confine the entire world within it, further enabling you to explore the world through words.
You needn’t wait for life to teach a lesson in the form of experience; you can learn it from the books and it’s open to access at any time. So keep reading.
