“After reading so many books and seeing so many magnificent mountains and seas, I decided to return to my ordinary hometown and lead a normal life. What is the meaning of reading?”, she asked. “The meaning of reading varies from person to person. For me, it changed my way of thinking. Through reading, I become more tolerant and open-minded with an enhanced ability to perform dialectical analysis and independent thinking.” she added.
