I have been writing parables and stories for several years now. Whenever I needed advice or an answer to a difficult question, I sat down at my desk and wrote it to myself. This helped me not to lose heart and move on. And now I just wanted to share with others what has helped me out more than once. These short stories are about love and respect for one's neighbor, selfless help; the ability to accept and not judge; about how important it is to have a positive attitude, first of all, towards yourself. I can’t explain how, but they somehow magically make you think about the meaning of your life, while calming and inspiring.
