Happiness and suffering almost we have all. We also have different life and dealing with the events surrounding. We sometimes feel sad, happy and emotional with these events. Sometimes we change these events and lead a better life full of happiness but sometimes these events change our self and make a life full of sadness and suffering.

I wonder why we cannot change or manage these events that make a life neither happy nor sad but the content full one, the life in which we can find good things in the worst of the events. I also wonder why the people fail to control or manage these events?

Why do people allow themselves to change?

What is the element that people lack?

Why do people get comfortable in the situations they know that it is bad for them?

Why do people lose courage in difficult times?

In this book we learn not only about the life of author but also about how did he deal with it? Author described his life in Auschwitz that is a concentration camp. How he find the meaning of life? How he survived in it?

The author optimistically described the attitude of prisoner in the given set of circumstances. We also learn logo therapy i.e. meaning through the therapy. The therapy has meaning, attitude, ideas and improvisations.

The author is a survivor of the brutal and unforgiving concentration camp under Nazi. In this book we read the real life stories of the author. The book is not for weak hearts. We read about Holocaust, similar stories of horror, hope, curiosity sorrow and fascination.

The book deeply touched me the most due to the suffering in the people went through, this is beyond our imagination.

Through this book we get inspiration. We compare most of our life with “search of meaning.” Because we all have odd or even conditions in our life like, we mourn for losses, we cry for losing our loved ones, we drink for losing our jobs, we smoke to avoid thinking about our reasons to live this day.

This is the book which describes the elements which keeps human going in times of greatest despair, the likes of which humanity has seldom known. It is easy to look at instance of immense suffering from afar. No matter how degraded or miserable life becomes. It is always better than death of course, it is very easy for me to write now, sitting comfortably in an air conditioned room, but this is the message of the book.

The power of your subconscious mind book is written by Joseph Murphy . It is a self-help type book . In the book we read about the power of our subconscious mind. Our mind is the only leader of our thinking. It defines our success or failure. It decides our capabilities to do the things possible or impossible. We read in the book… People all around may discourage us but we should try and try until the task is done. We can do everything what we can think, if we prepare our subconscious mind. Our thoughts decide our life and actions to try to be positive most of the time. We have healing power in our subconscious mind. Every disease first develops in our mind then reaches to our body. We should govern our task according to our thinking. In any situation of our life we should think that we are happy, harmonious, strong, loving and careful etc. Negative thoughts like stress , anxiety, fear, tension etc. destroy our thinking and result in serious diseases. Peace of Mind is the greatest...

We all know today is 15th August Independence Day. It is a very great day for us as a citizen of India. Today everyone is sharing photos and updating status on all the social media sites, like the whole country is coloured with tricolour. We all celebrate this day every year with full zeal and in patriotic way. We all have a cordial nature for our soldiers. We will always remember the sacrifice of soldiers in Jammu Kashmir operation (1948), China war (1962), Pakistan war (1965), Bangladesh war (1971), IPKF operation Pawan in Sri Lanka (1987), Kargil conflict (1999), and many more operations that gave befitting response to those who tried to dismantle the sovereignty of India. It feels very good to see everyone is patriotic and showing love towards the country but this feeling should be long lasting not only on Independence Day or in Republic day. In these two days we proudly hoist flag everywhere but after one or two days we saw many tore flags on the road, in garbage like a waste pap...

Unblocking The Most Beautiful Heart

It was 25 th  2010 July, first day of my engineering college. I was very sincere, so I was there to attend the class there were three boys and two girls, others were absent because it was first day and some people take the first day lightly. It was Reena ma’am‘s class but before teaching there was an introduction session. Though I was not good at English but I managed to introduce myself and told her about myself. After sometime it was turn of a girl. Her name was Jasmine, she was very busy in reading some books I thought she did not mind what’s going on. Ma’am said, “Jasmine… tell me about yourself.” She hastily stood up; she was very chubby, cute girl with pink cheeks. She introduced herself; i was very closely observing her and her beauty. Some of her hair locks were disturbing her vision by playing with her spectacles. For me it was like love at first sight. Her pink lips were like petals of rose. Her eyes were big like it was hiding a deep mysterious ocean in which i could ...
