Weaknesses and Strenghts It is such a difficult life. I sometimes feel as if we are all puppets whose strings are pulled by hidden evil forces. Even those who think they are powerful enough to rule the world are in reality weak humans whose confidence and pride can be shaken once they experience pain or failure. Wealth, power and all the worldly goods can't also save us from being damaged, hurt and destroyed. We struggle to achieve success and happiness, yet life is never devoid of moments of pain and suffering. So the fortune that you spend your whole life amassing, and the social status that you are striving for cannot guarantee you eternal youth or happiness. They cannot guarantee you an eternal life, either. Just remember that life is too short to spend hating ohers or competing with them. Try to be always ready for unexpected circumstances, and learn to deal with life's trials.

Hi, Jo,

An excellent article, well written and very good advice!  It reminds me of Desiderata (http://www.alittlebookof.com/desideratapdf.html)

Corrections: Strengths, Other. 

Notes: 

*As a native English speaker, I would say 'Strengths and Weaknesses', but I understand this may have been your intention?

* 'Also' is an unnecessary word here ('Also is normally used when adding information about a person or thing).

Regards, Morgan
