The journey of life is a fascinating one! At every corner, you get to learn new things.
This blog is a compilation of learning that I have acquired in my own life, which I believe will be helpful in steering your way through the path of life.

- It’s OK to sometimes lose faith in God in a fit of rage or frustration when nothing seems to be going your way. It’s normal. After all, we are human beings. When your frustration or anger subsides, seek forgiveness and start re-believing in Him. You will find considerable peace of mind.
