Don't let books become a thing of the past

Don't let books become a thing of the past

The internet has become a constant source of improving technology and because of that it seems like everything we do in our daily lives we can now do online. We can pay our pills, read the newspaper, and download songs. The use of banks and record stores is quickly becoming a thing of the past. Now while I do enjoy the new technology I really don't want to see it completely obliterate everything from the past. I am firm believer that the past is what makes us strong in the present.

With that being said there is one thing especially that I can't stand the thought of ever completely left behind by technology and that is books. Books have been around since the first century and while I understand the appeal of having every book at your fingers with new devices like the Amazon Kindle, reading a actual books evokes feelings that can't ever be replicated.

For me there is something uniquely special about opening up a actual book and reading the words from paper pages. I still love looking at my bookshelf and see books of all different sizes and colors taking up the space. I love going to Borders and getting lost in there for hours, taking time to look at every book that catches my eye. To me books represent something universal because every country has them. But that's not all, books are also immortal, because no matter how many new copies of books are printed or how many versions are printed the message remains the same, and it is the same message that has been passed down anywhere from a hundred years to a thousand years. Nothing can ever replace that.

It's for that reason that books are so important to me and the world in general. It's mind blowing, for me, to think that they have been a part of history for as long as they have. I'm sure I'm not the only one that feels this way, that despite technologies wonderful advances there is a point where it can go too far. Even so you might me wondering why I'm bothering writing an article like this while books are still in circulation. Here's why

I recently read a article online saying that both record and book stores are in danger of becoming a thing of the past. A perfect example is the large chain Borders, that despite having the appearance of doing good, is apparently broke/going bankrupt. I don't know about but I don't want the predictions about it being a few more years until these places can't function anymore. Do you want books to become obsolete or do you want to do your part to make sure books stay a part of our lifelong history and stores like Borders stay open?
