Book costing Rs. 40/- Changing life forever!!!

I went with my friends to city from the college hostel to hang around and enjoy. That was around march 2002. We also went to second hand books sale shop. Everybody bought books of their choice. Sarangan bought "Chicken soup for the surviving soul". I was thinking about buying "The God of small things" . Sarangan said it is a good book. I decided to buy it later. I chose the small book - "A Brief history of time" and it just costed Rs. 40/- as a second hand sale. When I bought it I just thought that it would be an interesting one. How could I ever have thought that it would change my life forever? Following are some of the things I understood from the book which if one understands would change their life forever. 1) The concept of time has no meaning before the beginning of the universe. 2) An expanding universe does not preclude a creator, but it does place limits on when he might have carried out his job. 3) A theory is just a model of the universe,
