Honestly, that’s a weird take. Through reading i have learned about so many things i would never have the chance to experience in person. Having your perspective altered (i would say, expanded) by reading is essential for emotional and intellectual growth. The only thing you risk losing is ignorance.

Yes, an upside and also a downside. I can discuss both and everything in-between. I am a magical unicorn, relatively speaking.
