Books were always my friends Last more than fifty years Books gave me dreams. Dreams resulted in missions. Books helped me confidently take up the missions. Books gave me courage at the time of failures. Good books were for me angels that touched my heart gently at the time. Hence I ask young friends to have books as friends. Books are your good friends.
