How I got Introduced To Richard Bach's Writing?

Past couples of months were not very gorgeous for me. Life was not taking shape the way I wanted it to. Suddenly my creative mind was destructing everything I built. I don’t know how and when my mind turned into monster. I left someone who was an integral part of my life my Elephant and I found myself in the middle of whirlpool. Dreams shattered. Life felt worthless. Heart stopped being happy and Mind started hating self. Where was I going? What was I thinking? Am I on right track? What am I suppose to do with myself? I keep falling in life after which getting up use to take months sometimes years. But when Elephant was there in my life everything seems to be perfect. Falling away and then getting up was not at all difficult. Facing mistakes or past was not scary. Those were the moments I had enjoyed the most. Those were the times when I faced myself more. But I changed everything and left myself for suffering. When life was not rosy I issued “One” By Richard. It was lying in my bag for weeks and then one fine day I thought of reading it. And God Bless that moment. I found it quite interesting. Life is still the same but the only difference Richard brought in my life was he really made me think on the choices I made in my life and their power, he made me analyze my life and made me criticize myself (it’s a different story that after doing that I use to let my eye get soaked). Elephants lost will always be painful and will be felt till I become soil. But I am going to respect my Elephant by trying to live my life the way Elephant wanted this is the only way I can respect MY ELEPHANT.

Richard doesn’t tell you how to live life he just make you understand that what you choose to do can make you long-term happy or long-term sad. What you choose will decide what you will become. That’s power of choices.
