Life's Little Lessons

The wisdom of the ancient - the sages, gurus, philosophers and all those who studied life and learned life lessons first hand, their wisdom is invaluable. Their wisdom comes to us in the form of Aphorisms. If we take time to examine their words, we would surely benefit from their wisdom.

Study the aphorisms. Learn from them to gain a head start in life, or to understand what life is all about. They will help you in your understanding of this existence, and how best to prepare yourself for life.
