unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions
themselves as if they were locked rooms

Dont search for answers,which could not be given to
You now,
because you would not be able to live them.
And the point is to live everything.
Live the questions now.

-Rainer Maria Riike

WHAT IS SUCCESS?

"That man is a success
who has lived well,
Laughed often and loved much;
Who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of children;
Who has filled his niche and accomplished his task;
Who leaves the world better than he found it,
Whether by a perfect poem or a rescued soul,
Who never lacked appreciation of the earth's beauty or failed to express it;
Who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had."

--Robert Louis Stevenson
