Truths of Life: Life Enlightened

by Zile Singh

Overview

From the very beginning, life has been passing through crucial times. Even today, basically it is searching for two things: some direction (the way) and something that is real (the truth). It is nothing new that life has pleasure and pain, victory and defeat, love, and hate, rise and fall. Man has been responsible for choosing these constructive and destructive energies. This way, man is the maker of his fate. The poem written by Portia Nelson, titled "Autobiography in Five Short Chapters" is a good example to summarize the message in this book.
