The Little Prince

I never noticed all about it, which has been lying on my dressing table for say, 4 or 5 days? Until that morning, while the piles of incoming mails seemed to paraniod me. I flipped thru the mails to see if any are for me and it caught my eye. I thought, wow! sis bought this to read too? yeah! Just in time to keep me occupied. But while flipping thru the pages, I saw a hand written note attention to me. So afterall, its not sis who bought, but someone else did.

I have earlier bought two new books. One is about facing the darkness, another is about enlightenment. But this one, which was left in my letter box on the 28th March, was what I have been curious to read but always forgot about it when I am busy browsing around at the "New Arrivals" section in the bookstore. In life, we always overlook what we already have and is always searching for new unknown ones.

This book, narrates about, in a child's view of the world, of the purpose of human life and of relations between people. If life can be that simple. In fact life is simple but gets complicated when we starts growing up. If only we can keep things simple, if only everyone can do so. This will be a better place to survive.

Below is a link which explains to you what this book is all about. Refer to this link if you are confused over what is said in each chapter. We, being the complicated adults, after all, may not understand simple things as they seems to be described in the chapters.
