    based on 15 ratings
     | 8,340 views

    We admire those who pursue life goals as long as they can; but our calling is to die to self. It will mean a change of values and of attitudes, but it will give us true life.

There’s a strong compulsion in us to extract all the value and the vitality we can get out from ...read more
