Literature :)

Talking about Literature... Most students wouldn't pay much attention to it since there are more interesting things to do rather than talking about this topic. Some people even consider it as useless and say that it has no practical use .But come to think of it...How come? :)

Well as for me, Literature is wonderful. Some people just don't have the capacity to appreciate its beauty. I mean, they say it's boring because it involves reading poetry and super long novels and stuff. But now I tell you, there's more much of that. :)


"Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become."

- C.S. Lewis


I saw this quote about Literature on the internet and it really caught my attention. By the way it's a quote from C.S. Lewis... I really don't know much about him but this work of his
is pretty nice^^.

In my own opinion, it simply means that Literature spices up life. Agree? Absolutely :) haha.


I've said this before that Literature is life... and life is Literature as well. Literature makes life delightful and at the same time, life makes Literature meaningful. In Literature, we gain a lot things -- morals, values and ideas we can apply in our daily lives. All the things that we've read would somehow create a great impact on us, so we can say that through Literature, we get inspired and we got the chance to fill our minds with very wonderful things :) Life would also contribute to Literature since our experiences are part of it.All our feelings and emotions can be expressed through Literature :)
