What is reading for me?

Readin in Spanish is...
A way to get out of the daily stress; is the plain for my free-time week and vacations. If the reading is made appropiate it could be a tool to improve the syntactic problems.  

Reading in English is...
To discover an unknown culture, to learn a bunch of new vocabulary, to get into someone else's mind. It is for me a door to a far away place, but the arrived is not always pleased because in some cases I feel stupid when I just cannot understand what the author is trying to tell me.

Reading in French is...
A huge challenge because since I was a child I hated French. However, it is not too bad, it is also a source for learnig French language and their way of telling/writing things.

Reading definition

 Reading is the compound of a skill and a vocation which allows you to immaginate and play through the words the author's thoughts in your head, just like a movie, after which you feel the desire to express your ideas for others to play them along their minds, then you make sure your thoughts are clear by checking through rereading and that's what makes reading and writing to be bound.
