THE LITTLE PRINCE (by Antoine de Saint-Exupery)

A story narrated by a man who crashed the plane he was steering into the middle of the dessert. He was mending his plane when he was suddenly interrupted by a little boy who came out of nowhere. Then the boy, whom he later discovered was a prince of a distant planet, asked him to draw a sheep. That was the start of their profound friendship and the prince began sharing about his adventure of finding a friend and his pursuit of seeking answers to his queries about life.

The aspects I love most about the book are the significant messages which the reader can ponder upon.

The prince and the man finally understood what is truly important in life. And that is love. While we are alive, what really matters is caring about someone or something, fulfilling the confidence given to you and nourishing the relationship made.

The prince cherished and loved a flower which he had been keeping in a glass cover. This made me realize that the object of love is not important. What matters is that there is love and a commitment to guard it forever.
