Man the Maker of His Own Destiny

Knowledge, work and love help you to become a perfect human being. True knowledge is gained by an increasing awareness of the totality of your existence. From infancy, through childhood, adolescence and into adulthood you are continually involved in interpreting your experience and adjusting to reality. You are now passing through a period of transition in your life. This is the transition from carefree childhood into the glory and ecstasy that is adolescence. This is the period when you discover new things about your body and mind functions. During this turbulent phase, you need to be well informed about the important things you have to care for; otherwise whole experience can become quite traumatic. You should remember that, in this process of personal growth, your interactions with the people around you play a very important part. Work means the way you relate yourself to the world. It involves association with people. A man who lives among other people must behave in such a way that he does not trample on their rights. Etiquette or manners are the ways in which you have to conduct yourself with the people around you-good manners make living with people much more comfortable.
