The Power of Words: How Reading Shapes Our Brains and Emotions
Introduction Practice differs from habit, and reading is an extraordinary practice that while may seem commonplace in our text-saturated world, is far from being an average practice: it is transformative.

The Silent Canvas
In the cozy, peaceful village of Mungyeong, South Korea, nestled in the mountains and extending down into bright green rice paddies, a young man named Jin was living with his family. Jin was quiet and did not talk much but always helped his father with work on the family farm. Behind the solidity of his work and a reserved exterior, this young man nourished a dream: he wanted to be a painter. His heart ached to share the beauty of the mountains, skies, and fields that bounded him, bringing these scenes into the pulsing colors of his imagination. Mungyeong was a traditional village, though-sons followed in the footsteps of their fathers, carrying on family lineages with pride. The father of Jin was a respectable farmer, and he fully anticipated his only son to take over the family land one day. "Our farm has supported this family for generations, Jin," his father often said. "There is no better way to serve than by working this land." While Jin deeply respects his father's commitment to their tradition, he knows his heart isn't in farming. It is in the quiet hours after dusk, on these hillside fields, that Jin secretly draws under the soft light of the moon. His canvas became his escape, where he could live and feel alive, breathed by expectations. But even he knew someday he would have to make a choice: to follow his passion or live his father's dreams for him.
