J'aimais lire ce livre. C'était un livre très sage et mignon, et je voudrais le relire quand je comprendre mieux le français.

🤴🌹💫 The Little Prince 💫🌹🤴
It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.
One of the most published and translated books in the world, The Little Prince fascinates the reader with its story of a pilot marooned in the Sahara after something goes wrong with his plane, and a little man with golden hair who has ‘fallen’ to earth by chance.
As the pilot tries to repair his plane, the little man requests him to draw a sheep as well as a box to keep the sheep in, so that it may not harm a flower he cares for—and therein begins a friendship that leads us to re-examine the many things we take for granted in our everyday life....
I was looking for a short read yesterday to read and review because The Martian my current read demands from me a little more time, so I came across this book. I had been thinking of reading The Little Prince for a long time but I guess I had to read it now. Having a length of a little more than 100 pages, The Little Prince impacts the reader much more than any other book, it showcases how in this fast running world where time passes by like a whiff of wind people are forgetting about the things that matter the most so easily, we ignore them and are often busy in things that don't really matter.
I think we are given a chance to be human in order to touch our peak, but first of all what's this peak??
This peak is different for everyone out there, but for me it is the mental awareness and the growth of our spiritual self, I feel like something inside us keeps dying as we keep growing up and we need to keep this dying self alive in order to be in touch with our true self. If this part of us dies, what's left out is nothing just a shell, just a body without life living in order to add burden to this world not in order to give this world more than what it provides us.
So basically this book taught me a lot, maybe more than several books combined which were told to be of utter importance by people around me but turned out to be nothing but just a burden which lies over my head when I am done with them.
Read this book if you want to learn more from your past self.
