When we become afflicted and get confused about what to do with our life, we are like a traveler who loses his orientation and doesn’t know which way to go. The way for him to get back on track is to quickly seek help from someone who can point out the right road. When he is given directions, he should really mindfully listen; otherwise he will soon get lost again and not be able to reach his destination. In life, we need wholesome friends beside us. Not only can they provide guidance, support and encouragement; they also set a good example for us.”",
