"No one wants to die, even
people who want to go to
Heaven don’t want to die
to get there, and yet,
death is the destination we
all share.
No one has ever escaped it.
And that is as it should be,
because death
is very likely the single best invention of life.
It’s life’s change
agent; it clears out the
old to make way for the new.
right now, the new
is you. Right now, the new is you.
But someday, not too
long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.
Sorry to be so
dramatic, but it’s quite true. Your time is limited, so don’t waste
it living someone else’s life. Don’t be
trapped by dogma, which is
living with the results
of other people’s
thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important have
the courage to follow your own heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is
secondary."
