My father loved reading. He would take his own time and read every corner of the newspaper and share with us anything he found important. He would find all kind of books and encourage us to read as he would read too. He would talk about the importance of reading, from the knowledge perspective, for having a better spoken language. His line was,, “language is a reflection of character so choose your words carefully”. As siblings started growing up and started with life experiences we valued this about the language and its reflection on character in real sense. later the same thought and interpreted that as “Shabd Prarthna”.
