Stuck in the house - read. You can travel to other countries, planets, worlds and realities when you read.2. Enjoyment
A book can pull you in make you laugh, cry and everything in between. A good story will pull you in and stay with you even when you are finished.
3. Empathy
It's hard to care about strangers with problems far removed from your own but when you read you care about the people, about their struggle. It gives you a better understanding of other people and where they come from.
4. mE time
When you read for fun, read stuff you want to read, do something just for you. Reading is a personal thing no two people read a book the same, even re-reading can make you think differently.
5. Education
As Dr. Seuss once said "the more you read, the more you know." Learn how to wrestle bears, protect yourself from kelpies and dye your hair using kool-aid, how the White House kitchens work, how the Roman sewage system operated and how to rise the the rank of Commander in the time of Horatio Nelson.
