Implications of reading should be noteworthy
The word 'reading' gives a glimpse of reading a book. It can be a study material or a storybook, but in reality, 'reading' has more presence in our lives. Many more significant observations get done through reading. A palmist reads palm lines, an astrologer reads horoscope, an astronomer reads planetary movements, there is mind reading, and even meter reading of the consumption of electricity, gas and vehicles is a regular practice. Medical practitioners take blood pressure, oxygen level, and weight readings. Thus, human lives are full of readings, but understanding the merits and demerits of it is very important.Let's keep aside the reading of course books because it's mandatory. What about the choice of storybooks? People with a criminal bend of mind, fond of vulgarity, have an interest in scientific research, have a detective mindset, are too romantic or an explorer, and so on can utilise ideas from the storybooks in reality. Good ideas would spread goodness, while evil is devastating, and it all depends upon the readers' mindset. If the readers consider a storybook just like fiction, there is no problem, but practical usage can mend or break relationships and societal structure.
There is a harmful effect of every kind of reading, not only books, unless and until people learn to control their emotions. Have you ever thought of the mindset of palmists? A palmist who reads the lines of personal palm can react overconfidently, as a coward or leave everything on the Almighty. That means their future can be bothersome, while those who do not read their palm learn to take life as it comes. Let's consider a mind reader who can easily take advantage of another person by reading else's mind. Making mistakes in reading the horoscopes of a would-be couple can again make or break lives. An evil person can use an astrologer to ruin someone's life in exchange for money. Even reading a literary piece of one's work can garner praise or criticism from the critics, which the author might accept or not accept. Faulty meter readings can be profitable either to the consumer or the provider.
Thus, life is full of various readings: from books to palms and whatnot. Either someone else is reading or making a personal reading. It's always better to be a curious reader of anything, but usage should be harmless.
