Facets of Life

Our lives might not have come with a manual, or an instruction booklet to teach us what is right, what is wrong, or how to live our lives. But if we are willing to listen to our elders, to learn from the sages and wise men before us, we will be able to get a pretty good grasp of life, avoiding all the portholes that are dotted along life’s journey.
