"Strange is our situation here on Earth. Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to divine a purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know: that we’re here for the sake of others, above all for those upon whose smiles and well-being our own happiness depends; and also for those countless unknown souls with whose fate we are connected by bonds of sympathy." -Friedrich Nietzsche
Profound.
ReplyDeleteI like Steve Jobs Commencement speech at Stanford after he was diagnosed with cancer.
Insightful, Melancholy and Profound all at the same time.
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you writing again!
