Review of Man Mission
Posted: 11 Mar 2022, 14:23
[Following is a volunteer review of "Man Mission" by Eytan Uliel.]
We frequently have many childhood goals of what we would like to do or be when we grow up, but it's surprising how we lose track of these dreams as we mature into adults, dismissing them as simple childlike fancies, allowing the pressures of adulthood to overwhelm us, and living life as it unfolds.
Unlike many others, four young men were able to follow their boyhood aspirations of hiking, biking, kayaking, and camping throughout the world, which seemed a weird daydream at the time, but they were able to do so for fifteen years, visiting fifteen different nations. They set out on their first adventure to New Zealand, and Man Mission was born as a result of that trip, with all four guys serving on the Man Mission committee. They traveled to Thailand, Korea, South America, Peru, and several other nations, with Iceland being the fifteenth. A lot has changed over the years as these men, who at the start of the Man Mission were just young lads with big dreams for the future, went through the normal stages of life: building a career, getting married, becoming fathers, and each phase brought its own set of challenges, especially in a world where men are expected to do a lot. Man Mission, which began as a place where these guys could just have fun evolved into a place where they might find comfort, atonement, and learn what it means to be real men. What it means to seize control of one's fate.
Reading Man Mission was quite a journey for me since it made me focus on several things, including where I'm coming from, where I am now, and where I'm heading. Who I am and what I aspire to be. This composition was beautifully put together by Eytan Uliel. It's so good that you can empathize with the writer's emotions. I appreciate how the author was able to flawlessly integrate their thrilling adventure experience with real-life situations, particularly marriage and friendship. The intriguing aspect of this story is how the author, once again, manages to work in-jokes into extremely serious situations, and you may find yourself laughing and crying at the same time.
Indecision and the dread of what society will say if we do certain things are more current difficulties that we avoid daily, but this book wonderfully handled them in many ways. If there's anything this book has done for me, it's given me a new perspective on life and changed the way I think about a lot of things.
I had a good time reading this book and couldn't find any negative reviews. I found no errors in the book, which is a testament that the book is exceptionally well-edited.
In many ways, the book exceeded my expectations and was well worth my time. On this basis, I rate it 4 out of 4 stars.
This is a book I recommend to matured teens; it's more of a guide for those who have no concept of what real life is like. I also recommend it to fathers and young individuals who are just starting out in life and of course, to lovers of adventure.
