Everybody wants to progress in life. There is no denial to it. But is it sane to lose humanity in the name of progress? It's the hurry, the impatience that has led man to overlook virtues. The musings on life in this book are meant for reaffirmation of the greater values that stand for the true identity of man. There is no alternative than to reinculcate the virtues if he is to be called a man. The book also deals with some of the obstacles mankind faces in being happy. With goodness only we can overcome them. That is the only way. Man must not forget his higher nature.
