      I would like to get a content from you on the trend of Indians choosing non-IT job oriented studies. We know even if students choose electronics or mechanical still work on IT. But the data that you present should show the overall trend with Indians choosing the stream of work. This will give us a view to us where Indians will be and how many markets can Indians penetrate into out of IT itself. I know you can add versatile sides to this ask and present even more good informative content. 🙂✌

      I LOVE BOOKS . BOOKS ARE THE SOUL OF LIFE
      The FATTER the fiction/ non fiction book ,the more i love to read it .I have once walked out of a bad movie in the interval and sat and finished a wheel of time series book in the lobby :) . My mother is the one who used to give me books instead of toys to play with
      a) Retail stores price books ridiculously high so pricing is an issue .Libraries r needed
      b)Schools& parents & ADHD in folks have contributed to this situation

      Thank you, First Post & Palki maam, for these stories. I really look up to them. They are fact bombs. I would like to have some content on how spiritual practices can enhance a minimalist lifestyle, why stoicism is not synonymous with carelessness and how spirituality connects success and achievement in this rat race age. Why spirituality is not similar to any particular religion and different religious practices and how it helps us to maintain the harmony around us.

    There is no warm feeling than reading your favourite book on a rainy day, covered in cozy blankets with a cup of coffee in your hand. The smell of fresh books, hiding pieces of an old love such as dry flowers, old photographs, and hazy letters as bookmarks. Oh my my! How could anything digital ever replace that?

I sometimes ask myself if I can possess this type of skill and what it would take to achieve that; I end up giving up thinking. But after watching this video, it seems I have found the true answer: intense focus and deep attention to detail; one way to achieve those two values would be giving more of my time and attention to books, especially physical books.

      ​@@achillesglacia7700I somewhat disagree, not completely though. As someone who knows 6 languages, including how to read them at least, a few I can write also, it is not just about expressing oneself. The words can fire one's imagination in ways that is sometimes difficult or different than learning something visually. Giving a small example here. Read a book and then watch a movie. Seldom the movie lives upto your imagination. Also words, when read, can mean something else entirely to one person than it would to another when not expressed vocally/without emotion. We interpret the emotions and meaning for ourselves.
      This by no means discredits visual learning. Both have their pros and cons.

    Whenever I talk about a book I've read in front of others, 99% of them just seem to be bored by it, or simply just listening to get through this part of the conversation as quick as possible.

    I too discovered a newfound love for reading during the pandemic. Instead of my usual routine like singing or mindlessly scrolling through my Instagram reels, I decided to explore the world books. There’s something truly magical about the feel of a physical book in your hands, the sensation of turning each pages as you immerse yourself in a different world. It’s been an interesting experience and I am absolutely activated by the power of literature. Reading has become a cherished part of my life and I look forward to exploring more literary adventures. It has become more than a past time, it’s source of joy and inspiration that has enriched my life.

This beautiful book is about family and it shows you how family can be the people that love you more than anything else in the world but also the ones that cause you the most amount of heartbreak. The fact that the entire storyline of this book takes place throughout one single night but you're still able to dive in and know so much about every individual character is a reading experience of its own.

    I noticed the decline when all the used bookstores started closing here in CA. Then the mainstream stores started closing down. Now it seems if you want a book you go online. I remember reading every day as a child, and now I'm here on YT on my smart phone. The combining of everything onto your phone has made it a problem for sure. Once we hit the '90's we really hit the sweet spot with technology and real life. I wish we could go back.

    NO , READING'S NOT DEAD

    For me books are like my first love. No matter what, I can go back and get engrossed in the same story that I've already read 2-3 times. The experience is beautiful. The satisfaction of completing a book is something else. I, for one can never ever give up reading because it takes me away to another world full of surprises....

    I remember when I was young I used to visit our distant rich relative. They had a Settee in the hall which had 3 cupboards crammed with paper backs.I used to take one book out of it (Perry Mason,Agatha Christie) and went on reading for hours together. The head of the family observed this and allowed me to take home as many books as I want. I remember finishing the whole lot within few months. Such was a fascination of books for me.

    Over the years I have found reading books therapeutic. Like meditation, reading good books can take up away from our reality into a whole new world of imagination (even non-fiction ones). I'm old school so only read printed books, which I accumulate until I have to move houses. Yet, reading books remains a passion and keeps me away from toxic social media platforms.
