“Life was teaching me hard lessons and asking me hard questions and I was just a mere drunkard hovering in a maze. Questions arose inside me – questions like, ‘What good is a progress if you don’t have anyone to celebrate with?’ or ‘What good is a triumph when it feels like a loss?’ and a lot more. I had gone astray in a complete world of my own. I just merely existed. But for all that the world knew, I was smiling at everyone for no reason.”

“Discovering the truth is not a simple matter. There are many sides and layers of truth. There are many complexities, mixtures, and contradictions. There may be only partial truths, not exclusive or universal truths. There may be modified or contaminated truths. But within the context, and despite these limitations, I feel the search must continue. Thus, I ask myself these questions: Who am I really? What have I done? What do I do that is truly good and useful? What do I believe in and why? How well do I know myself and others? What kinds of relationships do I geniunely have and what kind do I want? What is important and meaningful to me? Important and meaningful enough to make me want to keep on living? What difference has it made that I've lived? What contributions have I made that I'm proud of? What values do I hold firmly and unequivically and why those? What talents do I really have? What potentials have I not yet realized? Should I still try to achieve them? How can I balance my optimism and pessimism? What do I know and what do I still want to know about human nature and the human condition? What do I understand about the development and survival of the human race? What does it mean to be fully human and where am I on that scale?”
Morrie Schwartz, The Wisdom of Morrie: Living and Aging Creatively and Joyfully

“We are born in a burning world blind;
scorched souls in cold bodies; this heart
beats to a rhythm I cannot recognize.

There is a perfect laid out path for me,
then why do I always fall behind?”
Zaineb Afzal, Spare Change
