The Power Of Reading

Original Writing

I’m always inspired by characters in books.
As a child growing up, I was inspired by Atticus Finch for his dedication to morality, and his refusal to deviate away from it.
Then, as a teenager, I was inspired by Katniss Everdeen, for being the epitome of strength I admired to hold within myself.
Soon after, I was inspired by Jay Gatsby, to chase after the one you love no matter how long and strenuous the journey might be. To relentlessly devote yourself to someone, and forgive all their imperfections.
I am a strong believer in the fact that books have the ability to change you, but only if you let it.
