Observing an Ocean, one will notice that its waves rise and retreat regularly. Also, there are numerous people on its sandy beach, watching, playing, relaxing and enjoying. A child is playing on the beach and a wave comes and takes back with it his toys or destroys his sand castle - he gets upset and writes on the sand "Ocean is bad". A fisherman gets a good catch of fish from the sea, for his daily livelihood, he becomes happy and writes "Ocean is kind & my provider". Seeing a young person drown in the sea, the sad mother writes "Ocean is a murderer". A person walking on the beach on finding a precious pearl in the sea-shell, writes "Ocean is so benevolent". All this time, the mighty ocean has been the same and is not bothered on how others are referring to its tides/waves. It continues unfazed by other’s expressions on its nature and behaviour. Likewise, we humans need to be concentrating on our innate strengths/courage to carry on with our tasks/passion, undisturbed by external turbulence and deterrents. “Life is ... an Ocean... Explore & Float!” This book is an effort to provide worthwhile information on various common subjects, which regularly surface with varying complexities in our Life. Our Life ahead will be a culmination of various Choices and Decisions we make today!
