This book is was highly recommended by many book reviews that i follow. I actually have the eBook but during Raya, found the hardcopy of the book from my sister and decided to have a go….
Why read hardcopy when i have my eBook? Well i need to show my kids that I am reading a book. You know they say, kids will follow their parents. Everything i need is on my iPad hence my kids are always on their gadget… need to change this habit…
Anyway….
The book started very slow…. Like most things… after reading about 1/3 of the book i felt bored reading it and nearly quit… Thank god i didn’t….. Carry on….
After about 1/2 the book onwards, the story started to become more interesting and i really fell in love with the story from then onwards….
Why?
We all somehow have our list of regrets in life… things that we wanted to do but didn’t do…. Sometimes we always daydream about What IF
What If I decide to take this path instead
What If I got married earlier or later
What If I changes my career
What If
What If
What If
What If
This story is all about living our What If
SPOILER ALERT - If you intend to read this book, stop now and go read it…
End of the day, whatever we regret or we fantasize about our what if… actually we just needed to live our life…. Be more Grateful, Appreciate the people and things around us, Every experience we go thru is good for us (good or bad).
I always say this to my client….
Life Happens FOR us, not TO us…
I don’t think i am doing justice to this book… I highly recommend this book to everyone…. If you like the book The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, then you will definitely love this book…
I will end with some of my favorite quotes from the book….
