Books.....a vanishing trend

"Books and friends should be few and good", the saying goes. Truly, books have been true friends for the human since ages. But nowadays, this trend has become old fashioned with people focussing all their time, money and energy on computers. As a result, reading is no more a favourite pasttime, the result is the latest generation lacks ideas, imagination, vision, vocabulary and outlook. They are lazy by nature and tend to depend on others for their work to be done. Life is to be made as easy as possible.....getting everything without any effort. With this bent of mind it is difficult to endorse oneself in any piece of work. When one gets used to easy going ways, handling tough situations becomes difficult. Reading is an adventure that never ends......and a habit which serves lifelong. No matter how technically advanced we become, some principles of life can never change.
