“He who has a Why to live for can bear almost any How”
“When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.”
“Yes, a man can get used to anything, but do not ask us how”
Forces beyond your control can take away everything you posses except one thing, your freedom to choose how you will respond to the situation. You cannot control what happens to you in life, but you can always controls what you feel and do about what happens to you.
I happened to read this book after a dear friend of mine, Aayushi suggested me to give it a try.
And it turned out to be one of the best book suggestions of 2017! The book is an account of psychiatrist Viktor Frankl's experiences in the Nazi concentration camps. The book is bound to shake you to your core. It's harrowing and grim, yet motivating and inspiring at the same time! As the title of the book goes, it explores the never-ending question that has troubled humanity over aeons, “What's the purpose of all this? What's the meaning of our existence?”, that too in a rather philosophical and profound way. Pick up this book when you're going through a tough phase in your life and then you'll understand the true magic of this wonderful memior by Frankl! Surely worth reading!
