The motto of my life

Whenever I was inspired by verses or ideas in books I read, I would use them as my motto and thought of their meaning as I lived. This book, especially, has many inspirational messages I identify with. Probably this is the book which I most often quoted in my notebook. I recommend this book to people who seek the motto of life in books. Se-a Jun/Staff worker/Seoul

The amazing book despite the look

I wanted to live happily, but the happiness was not near, no matter what I did. I was fearful and scared: “How long would I live with hardship?” I found this book when I had such worries. As I read page by page, I was able to come out of despair and found the strength for happiness within me. I did not understand the mind that I had; through systematic explanation, it was easy to understand. I would really like to meet the author who gave me hope. Joo-hea Hwang/Housewife/Gangwon Choonchun
