It is rightly said the life is too short to attain all the knowledge of the world. Also, it is very difficult to find all the three valuable things in life or , in other words, the elements in life viz time, energy and money.
Life can broadly be divided into three stages. But, unfortunately, no stage in life has all the three elements required for human fulfillment and satisfaction. So, does this mean that we are not satisfied with life?
The three stages are:

-
