RE: Remembering How to Read: A Few Tips

in #life7 years ago

In my case, I do miss books, the thing is that in my country you have to make a quick decision: either you go to a bookstore and fetch that glossy book you really really want... or you get something to eat. Books, the good ones, are out of budget and most of the time you end up looking for a PDF to read, wich leads to another problem: you get distracted... -well, I get distracted- because the network is just a click away. About exercise, I've been taking some yoga classes. It helps. You learn to know your body, your limits and connect with people. Poetry helps as well, I read Venezuelan poets like Alberto Barrera Tyszka (my beloved), Edda Armas, Natasha Tiniacos, Eugenio Montejo...among others. You showed up a picture with a poem of Emily Dickinson, but besides her, what other poets do you read? I'm looking for some recommendations because I like to write down the poems I like the most. Thanks for this great post!
