The True Tragedy of Mr Wickham
In Pride and Prejudice, Mr Wickham's story genuinely is a tragic one, but it's a tragedy of his own making. George Wickham had every advantage in life, far above his station. Honestly, he was given significantly above even what might be expected to be given to the godchild of a gentleman. All he had to do, in order to be set for life, was put in a bit of hard work, and then avoid running up debts beyond his income.

He often speaks about going from being homeless to becoming a famous American billionaire, stating that his challenging life has inspired many to achieve their dreams. John Paul DeJoria was born on April 13, 1944, in Los Angeles, California, to an immigrant family with an Italian father. His early life was filled with turmoil, as his parents constantly argued and eventually separated when he was just 4 years old. Raised by his mother, who suffered from various illnesses, John Paul had to help support his family from a young age. Despite the hardships, he managed to graduate in 1962, only to face further struggles when his first marriage ended in abandonment, leaving him to care for his two young children alone. He took on various odd jobs to make ends meet, including working at gas stations, fixing cars, and selling insurance. DeJoria's life took a turn when he began selling hair care products, eventually co-founding John Paul Mitchell Systems in 1980 with a loan of just $700. Despite facing numerous setbacks, including the death of his business partner, he persevered and built a multi-million-dollar empire. Over the years, he expanded his business ventures, investing in companies ranging from energy drinks to sustainable energy. His most notable investment was in Patron Spirits, a company that achieved $1.6 billion in revenue in 2017. Even after attaining wealth, DeJoria continued to venture into new startups, demonstrating his entrepreneurial spirit.

A Day with a Book
Book Stats: Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, published in the year 1866. Today I had some free time on hand, so I decided to return the previously borrowed book from the library as the date of return was closing by. Cycling to the library while enjoying the cool breeze and silent street, it was still early in the day. The library only had the librarian who was sorting out the books. Returning the book I asked for a recommendation on a deep moralistic novel, the librarian gave me a smile and pushed a book towards me. Taking it I sat by the window in the library and started reading. It is Russian language, though I am not proficient in this language, I know enough to get by. So I started reading it took me quiet sometime but here's my opinion on it.

Rachel Reviews: The Greater Good by Frank Sapienza
One of the joys of reading is that you are often presented with situations that you can only hope to imagine. They could be fantastical but they could also be based on real life scenarios. Some of these can be good but some of them can be the embodiment of your worst nightmare. Books provide a sample menu, I think, a bit like films, where you get a taste of a situation or a world and you can see if you like it or realise it's one you hope never to encounter in real life. Like The Terminator or Sophie's Choice as two excellent examples.
