What I like about newspapers?

I read newspapers. I like the smell, the sound of the rustling paper, just as I enjoy reading the content. They have been my morning companions for dogs years, now. Why do I like newspaper?

Over the years, there are aspects about newspaper which I have noticed (I am sure everybody has) and which is very much applicable to our lives. Some of them are :

  • News articles are categories and sequenced – our life needs to be organised and it is better to work in compartments.
  • There are news about local events, politics and people along with news of national and international events – which means there is enough room for people in our lives.
  • Political cartoons that make you smile, small crosswords to engage your mind – indicates never miss the small pleasures of life they are as important as the big picture.
  • Headlines screams, front page always gets noticed – learn to prioritize tasks in a day – eat the frog the first thing in the morning – complete the difficult task first.
  • Eye capturing pictures – retain certain photographic moments in your life and store it in your memory.

Above all, once read- the newspapers of the day cannot be re-visited meaning live life one day at a time – that makes it worthwhile.
