Review: Our life is full of ups and downs and when we see things go in opposite direction of what we wished for, we curse our destiny and ourself of those. But in true words, this is what life is…every phase cannot be same throughout but to fight it with courage is in our hands. Life will through different question papers to everyone, and how we deal we it is what makes our life what we want it to be.
Love is the highest feeling in this world and when we have our loved once with us, this once seem difficult life become beautiful.
I loved this quote a lot – “It is the quality of life that matters not the quantity of life”. Embrace your present because its what we have with us now. I loved the book and recommend to get insights and clarity to deal with various aspects of life.
