Day172: “Life is short, live it. Love is rare, grab it. Anger is bad, dump it. Fear is awful, face it. Memories are sweet, cherish it.” – Unknown

While I am still recuperating from my illness, have been on rest since last one week, I utilized this period to read 2 self-empowerment books. The first of the two books is called 'Jonathan Livingston Seagull - a story' by Richard Bach and the second one is the classic 'As you think' by James Allen written over 100 years ago. Both these books carry extremely powerful messages. I will soon come up with the Book Reviews for these two books and I highly recommend each one of you reading me today reading these books. 

Before I call it a day, I am sharing few lines from 'As you Think'; Page 44;

You will be what you  will be

Let failure find its false content 

In that poor word "environment"

But spirit scorns it, and is free.

It masters time, it conquers space,

It cows that boastful trickster, Chance

And bids the tyrant circumstance

Uncrown, and take a servant's place

The human Will, that force unseen,

The offspring of a deathless Soul,

Can hew a way to any goal,

Though walls of granite intervene

Be not impatient in delay,

But waits as one who understands;

When spirits rises and commands,

The gods are ready to obey.

Absolutely stunning! isn't it?

Good Night
