Literary Profile (Post 1)

Literature has always been an important part of my life. I think literary texts and works spark the opportunity for children and adults alike to explore and imagine their version of the authors words. When I was a child, I remember my mother reading to me Dr. Seuss books every night. Reading his books allowed me even at a young age, to understand thats its ok to be silly and creative in your writing. And when I think about it its probably than when I deceided to get into the arts. The arts have always intrigued me writing, reading, painting, music dance. Although some people dont necessarily see the connection between these things, I would like to venture out and say I do. All of these things that might seem trivial as to other aspects of life to people, actual hold great value. The arts give people the chance not to be scared to express themselves however they feel in whatever form they want. Therefore inspiring creativity and a uniqueness that can only be showed when they have the place to. Literary works in specific probably have one the most profound yet sublte impact on the current generation. Students and young adults now a days feel that reading is overrated and for lack of better words old school. Yet those who do take the time to read find it to change their lives in a way other forms of communication cannot. Probably the most substantial piece of literary text that I have read was Charles Dickens Great Expectations. I thought this piece really brought the problems of a current society into a new in fresh way, through a detailed account of one’s life. Although this wasn’t my favorite thing to have read I can appreciate his way of working through issues and displaying his views on them through fictional means.
