The Journey of Life
The Journey of Life: The Basic Family Principles of Living a Fulfilling Life promotes developing a family culture based on good values. These values are derived from true religion, as well as a socially acceptable and constructive lifestyle. The book does not consider unproductive and backward traditional beliefs and destructive religious movements, but instead offers advice to help families live a positive life. All parents want their children to carry certain values which they consider important depending on how they see the world. Parents have the absolute responsibility to shape the behavior and the kind of life their children and family live. It is important that young children know ahead of time that if certain things are not done right, there will be consequences at a later time in their lives.As young children grow up to take on their own family responsibilities, understanding the reasoning behind their values helps hold them accountable when faced with peer pressure and more complex problems. Emphasizing your family values is a good way to make sure everyone knows what's important to your family. Children should be made aware of the reality of today's world and be prepared to face the challenges and, more importantly, to face them with a positive attitude even if they seem to be unbearable.My family principles are based on the determination to succeed and on recognizing that failures are part of success through the lessons learned from them to guide future attempts. Sustaining the success achieved from living a principled life is attainable if practical adaptations are made in this changing world. Many still follow their traditional cultural beliefs and religion even when it is difficult to do so. Others may wish to escape their destructive culture to live a positive life. This book offers a path toward this goal."The majority of the formula and methods that were used to solve life problems in the past can no longer address today's life problems."Young adults will especially find the author's advice helpful.
