My reading has taken a back seat for some time now. Reading, as in my kind of reading. I wasn't able to read even few lines from my favourite newspapers. The most painful part is, both papers are online available and have a limited access to articles because they are international papers. The maximum number of articles are only ten as a free read.
Mobile has made the mobility increased reading on the go..I read with my phone these days. So, when I open a page to read, I go on to few other pages to read when I want clarification on something or when my eyes fall on something interesting on the same page. If the page disappears for any reason, there is a count down in the number of articles.
Because of my busy schedule and God knows what makes me busy, my reading time and quality has decreased alarmingly. I feel guilty and feel the day was wasted without any possible reading. But I don't stop browsing for news or other news stories. So, when I come across an interesting article, I keep on adding the tabs on google page, at times up to 10 or more with the hope of reading them soon.
I get scoldings for opening too many tabs when I complain of slow process of mobile. But, there is nothing I can do about it. Contrary to my plan, my no- read- mode mind continues for weeks. I changed my strategy of following the pages by either saving them for later read or send them to my mail.
But there is a disadvantage in doing it. The reading does not take place at all. When the mobile is required to be shut down, all the pages go off. Tracing the browsing history and reading is impossible most of the times because of the limited access as I mentioned earlier.
So, this time, I tried very hard and succeeded in making it happen. I managed to read two different articles yesterday and today which I was holding on to for more than ten days at least. Both are about mind. I noticed I developed an inclination towards learning about mind. Mind is a marvellous creation of God!
So it happened this evening, after my nap, with a cup of coffee, I finished reading an article.
Reading after a nap is faster and the mind can absorb information. Unlike the recent days, this afternoon, the mind was calm and composed, perhaps best of it's form.
