On reading and life
Using a vague math for orientation towards a psychological framework as to reading
there is around 100 thousand hours of reading there
this then can cause a dumbstruck deadlock
to manage however is like a muscle massage, a devotional approach
each day there is to be a few significant portions of time, one is inching closer to a for all intents and purposes an unreachable goal, but the goal is lost sight of when one is engrossed in each little mini session.
It becomes habit forming, and can be likened to exploring a vast geographical location on foot, and for each blade of grass, each portion of cement, and so on is seen as if it was so unexplainably wonderful.
One is enjoying every minute precisely because one isn't constantly thinking of how many hours total is required. And also that it's not coming to the end that matters, but the journey, if one actually came to the end, it would be a crushing ordeal, one would tear out their eyes and beat their breast in utter dismay.
No, savor each page, each section, each chapter, each author, each topic, each genre, each learned thing, and in the times when you're awake and not reading experience the instances when you can integrate those learned things there. Know also that for each thing you think you know and just learned are millions of degrees of knowing, and you'll never know so much as to render what anyone else says to be of no effect, but indeed 100% of everyone else has something to teach you.
