Life's Fundamental Choices

Thousands upon thousands of young people blunder through their early years without much information or inspiration, depending only upon good luck, good fortune, or other uncertain influences to help them through an unknown and uncharted future. Some do well for no apparent reason, while others become confused and entangled in a mesh of mistakes, unhappy alliances, and sins, from which it is seemingly pretty close to impossible for God or man to extricate them. Some of them have given up the fight, while others have continued their struggles and efforts to rebuild the wrecks they have made of their lives. Any tragedy is regrettable, especially when it has been the result of one's own mistakes that were entirely avoidable. The wrecks should be repaired, but how much better it would have been to have prevented the wrecks. To bring back the one who has gone astray is good, but how much more important it is to help him avoid taking the wrong road. Mistakes should not be considered hopeless. However, the number of those wrecking their lives through wrong choices should be and must be greatly reduced. Hence the reason for this little book.
