‘In The Ring with Life’ is one of the best books I have ever read. The author has been able to touch on various important facets of life in a very interesting and appealing manner. There are nuggets of wisdom strewn throughout the book which would go a long way to make the diligent reader a better achiever, and a better human whatever may be his station in life. The author succeeds in striking an immediate rapport with the reader by her friendly approach without any semblance of sermonising. The punches delivered in the ring by LIFE are only various crisis situations including the retrenchment which the Author had faced at the height of her career due to COVID19. The author has been able to tide over all such situations with love for all living beings, patience, and courage. I recommend this book to all men and women who strive to lead meaningful and satisfying life.
In contrast to making life the ring itself, the author makes life her sparring partner and goes on to explain the jabs and punches her opponent has dealt her and how she's bounced back up, just to take another blow. The author's positive outlook on life and fighting spirit comes out as the book isn't one glorifying the pains of life but a real life account of how she, as an ambitious and strong willed woman dealt with each pain with grace. Through miscarriage, professional ovehaul, personal shortcomings as life presented it's hook, the author elegantly ducks, not just saying but showing that fear is a reaction; courage is a decision. The author also flexes her wisdom and wit with intelligent uppercuts like 'With all our focus on securing a child's future, we often ignore their present'. If life hadn't accidentally butted her off the professional apron with retrenchment resulting out of the COVID-19 lockdown, the author wouldn't have dealt her shoeshine with her witty K2 theory
Strongly recommended as a good read
