Normally I try to avoid dispensing free advice because I know how difficult it is to put it into practice. And there is nothing more depressing than a good advice. But for the time being I can't resist myself. So here it goes…… Despite friends and family, youth is probably the loneliest period of one's life but it is the most exciting and can be a greatly satisfying period of life. Try not to plan too much and don't worry too much. Every week keep asking yourself, ”Am I anxious? If yes, why? What is it that I'm so anxious about?” Confront the problem in your life ahead. Don't ever forget that it's not so much money, material and achievement that make your life but the people around you and your relationship with them. But never underestimate the importance of money. It'll always be the most helpful and the best friend of yours. So always have some amount of it saved with you. Try to gain independence in thought and action as much as possible in your life. Preserve your self-respect. You’ll meet a lot of people in your life. It’ll never be possible for you to build permanent relationship with them except with a few loved ones. Sometimes you would lose your loved ones. Some will betray your trust and hurt you, but remember nothing stops the flow of life. They say, “The show must go on” I say, “the show will always go on, with you or without you” so don't stop anywhere. Develop a healthy distrust in people but also learn to trust the right people at the right time. Nobody is good or bad all the time. You may find the cruelest and ruthless one doing kind acts and the kindest and the best doing cruel things. Don’t get perturbed by it. Life is paradoxical and so are the people. You are also one of all the people. Love someone deeply and violently. It'll elevate you,will give meaning to your life,Lest life becomes meaningless. If it ever happens that you open your eyes some day and find that the world is a lot more horrible place than you ever imagined, don't weep smile.

You will find solace in your love. So find someone and love him/her more than yourself. That will give you enough reason to stand up to the horror, cruelty and ruthlessness of the world. Always be loyal and helpful to your family, your brother and sisters. No matter who says what, the one who are related to you by blood will always be closer to you than anybody else. Take care of your health and your body. Don’t drink too much and don't smoke. It will greatly reduce the quality of your life in later years. Have a steady and balanced lifestyle. Draw some sweat from your brow every day. You will reap its benefits for all your life. Don’t let your work eat your life completely. Give yourself and your family some time. Have fun. It's not a crime to have fun and to be happy. The greatest regret that most people have at the end of their lives is that they worked too hard and never gave themselves enough time to live life fully. Don’t ever compare yourself with others. Believe me, you are far too special than anybody else in the world. Don't spend your life to be someone else. It’s your life. Take control of it. What else can I say? In future if I were to leave a note behind for my son and daughter, before passing away, I wouldn’t change a word from the above lines. If you are still reading patiently all that I have written above, I want to make a last point. This is the gist of what I have learned all through my life. Get yourself so busy living life that you never feel like reading or listening to so much crap for so long. Why waste time when life is short !!!
