Why reading is important?

If money is your hope for independence, you will never have it. The only real security that a man can have in this world is a reserve of knowledge, experience and ability.
Henry Ford

I saw the following nice piece when I was visiting my daughter's school. It was in the English teacher's class.

Read to understand the past
Read to explore the world
Read to plan your future
Read to visit new places
Read to create great things
Read to make a good decision
Read to have fun
Read to exercise your mind
Read to keep in touch
Read BECAUSE YOU CAN

Have a great 2006
More to come, Dream a lot, think creative, work hard and Succeed...
