At the end of the journey in search of yourself everything will fall into place. As a result, all that needs to be found is a completely new beginning, it is a pointer on the soul map
Starting right from this moment, I will try to find what every person has, but not everyone can find it.
2
Even independent people who travel through life, focusing on a hand-drawn map, sometimes get lost and lost in the fog of thoughts: «The path I follow seems to be not my path at all.»
But to stop following this path or to find your own lacks courage.
From despair, continuing to walk in the wrong direction, there is discomfort in the soul and body; and the more time passes, the more it is felt.
And if you no longer have the strength to endure this discomfort, then the moment has come when you need to draw a map of your own path.
«You are not selfish, you are independent»

I hate the phrase «never give up.» give up even good, if, of course, we are not talking about life as such. but I’m not saying that you should always give up easily. if there is a desired goal, you need to try and try to do everything possible. just like that, challenging your dream a couple of times, if nothing happens, you can safely give up.
surrender is also normal. because life is not the only one

I did not follow the weather forecast.
Out of the house, and if one or two drops fell,
wet in the rain, I went to the nearest convenience store and bought a vinyl umbrella;
And, not knowing what has already become warmer,
I wore a winter down jacket and went to work.
But for some time I, of course,
I watch closely the forecasts, down to the level of dust in the air.
In summer, when it is hot, even with short sleeves,
I had a habit of taking with me a warm sweatshirt and an umbrella.
When your air conditioner is too cold,
I think, do not overshadow me;
When the pouring rain suddenly started,
I think, if you lend you your umbrella…
You cheated on me.
on a rainy day
single umbrella
gave you
And I got wet to the skin.
So why is the heart so warm and cozy?

This is my personal revelation, which has been stored in me for the past few months. I also think that you will take a lot for yourself by reading it.
After receiving «Prometheus» (the icon of the fire for the uniqueness of the community) in August 2018, too many texts similar to berry tea began to appear. For me, a person who is looking for uniqueness in everything and tries to stand out, this, naturally, has greatly influenced. I had to change the design in this text, because I simply cannot bear the resemblance to the others, I am such a person.
And so it began: changing the design, then the subject, in general, berry tea fails a second time (the first time, when tea moved out of 100,000 words), but I did not give up and believed that I could come up with something new and interesting.
For the past few months, I have been ticking berry tea. Just because I did not want to upset those who once trusted me and saw this text. I still experimented with the design, but the management of this template tex itself did not give me the same pleasure.
And now closer to the point.
As you have already noticed, lately, to start drawing a lot de where they don’t know you, and even those who haven’t heard about you, and this is what returned my former interest in berry tea. I also began to write as before.
I came to the conclusion that in this life everything must be done by itself. Draw, write, compose music whenever possible. Uniqueness, damn it, break everything and everyone.
For a whole year I could not find a new avatar for berry tea (I had this house already in my liver, although it was good). Who would have thought that I myself can create the most wonderful avatar for my community?
The moral here is that while you look into the distance and look for miracles there, they are sitting inside you. And in general, I will never stop repeating that every person is like a treasure chest — the best is inside him, and not around him. Need to start with yourself.

The professor said that it was more difficult for people who never read fairy tales to cope with life than those who read. They do not have the experience of wandering through dense forests, meetings with strangers who respond to kindness with kindness, there is no knowledge that is acquired in the community of donkey skin, a cat in boots and a resistant tin soldier. I am not talking about direct moralizing, but about more subtle lessons. About those that infiltrate into the subconscious and create a moral character and human structure. About those who learn to win and trust. And maybe even love.

«Fall in love in 4 minutes»
Artur Aron is a psychologist who conducted a terrific experiment 20 years ago.
In his laboratory, he invited previously unfamiliar man and woman, whom he offered to answer 36 questions. People had to speak sincerely, empathizing with each other. After discussing the issues, the couple looked at each other for 4 minutes. It’s amazing what happened then — after six months, these people decided to get married.
The secret of this experience is that in answering such detailed, personal questions, people become open, vulnerable. Overall openness is very close. Having talked on such topics with a complete stranger and having listened to him carefully, you will very quickly gain his trust. In addition, these questions can be used in relationship therapy. A couple who are receding from each other can quickly refresh their feelings with the help of a confidential conversation. Here is a list of these amazing questions:
1. Choosing from everyone in the world who would you invite to visit for dinner?
2. Would you like to be famous? What would you like to become famous for?
3. Before you make a phone call, do you ever rehearse what you are going to say? Why?
4. How do you see the perfect day?
5. When was the last time you sang alone with yourself? And for someone else?
6. What would you choose: to keep your body or mind 30 years old in the next 60 years of your life?
7. Do you have a secret premonition about how you die?
8. What are the three common features that you and your partner have?
9. For what in your life do you feel most grateful?
10. If you could change anything in the process of your upbringing, what would it be?
11. In 4 minutes, tell your partner the story of your life in as much detail as possible.
12. If you could wake up tomorrow, having acquired a certain quality or ability, which / what?
13. If a crystal ball could tell you the truth about your life, about the future, or about anything else, what would you like to know?
14. Is there something that you have dreamed of doing for a long time? Why didn’t you do this?
15. Name the greatest achievement in your life.
16. What do you value most in your friends?
17. What is your most cherished memory?
18. The most terrible memory?
19. If you knew that within one year you would die suddenly, would you change anything in your current life? Why?
20. What does friendship mean to you?
21. What is the role of love and affection in your life?
22. Name the positive characteristics of your partner, about 5 points.
23. How close are your family members? Do you think your childhood was happier than most other people?
24. What do you think about your relationship with your mother?
25. Make three true sentences, starting with «we». For example, «we are both in this room thinking about…»
26. Continue this phrase: «I would like to share with someone…»
27. What should a partner know about you with whom you want to become close friends?
28. Tell your partner what you like most about him. Try to be extremely honest.
29. Share with your partner the most embarrassing moment of your life.
30. Remember when and from what you last cried.
31. What thing seems so serious to you that it is impossible to joke about her?
32. If you were to die this evening, what important would you like to say and to whom?
33. Your house with all your property caught fire. After rescuing loved ones, you have time to return to the house again and save some one thing. What is this thing and why do you choose it?
34. Which death of your family members would hurt you the most? Why?
35. Share your personal problem and ask your partner to advise how to solve it.
36. Tell us about your first love.
As Erich Fromm asserts in his book «The Art of Love» — love is not something easily accessible and accidental. Realizing their loneliness in this vast world, people strive to unite with someone who would understand them and support them. These questions very well connect even completely different people, because to think together about such important points means to get as close as possible to each other.
Carry out this experiment with your other half, and if it is not there, it does not matter. By discussing such issues, you can very quickly get close to someone you like. Psychology is a magical science, it can work wonders.

In the East, there is a belief that birds do not know how to be sad, because they are awarded with eternal freedom. When they are disappointed in something, they fly to the sky for a long time. The higher the better. They fly with the confidence that tears will dry under the gusts of wind, and the swift flight will bring them closer to a new happiness. People can learn a lot from birds. People need to learn how to fly, even if the wings are broken. You just need to want to get off the ground, soar towards yourself.

— In the world there is an absolute destructive truth, and it is a thousand times more important than whether you managed to get to the first line of the charts or not. This truth is this: if you really want to do something, do not wait when they ask you to.
Do not ask permission.
Do not wait until you are certified or until you are offered a certain amount of money. Instead, it is better to get ready for a possible defeat in advance and spit on what your friends, friends and relatives think.
Whatever it is, whatever burns you from the inside — do it now. Tomorrow is too late. You should not expect that you will be given tomorrow every day.

— In this world there is nothing yours. Nothing belongs to you here. Yours is only that which is within you. These are your states, feelings and emotions. They are the main value for you, even if you do not understand. Or often forget.
Do you think you own your things? What did you buy? What was presented to you? This is not true. Your computer, on which you now read this text, from the point of view of the world is a bunch of atoms and molecules, like a litter bin, standing on the street in front of the entrance. The computer belongs to this world, and he does not know that it is yours. He does not care who it is specifically, even if nobody else. Like all your other stuff.
But your — the feelings that you have, loading it. The joy of another level covered in your favorite game, sadness from an empty mailbox, affection from viewing a folder with old photos. Only the feelings and emotions that arise in you are truly yours.
A player screaming in your ears — in five minutes it may become someone else. But the mood that your favorite music gives you is yours. Apartment, car. A bunch of papers on which someone wrote that it belongs to you — no more than crumpled napkins. The fact that something belongs to you is nothing more than an illusion. You just have the confidence that you are the happy owner of all this.
You should not spend time and energy collecting atoms, which still will never be yours. Collect emotions. Collect joy and sadness, keep yourself excited and jealous, hate and passion, tenderness and tenderness, pride and fear. Only they have value, and will always remain with you.
New wheels, fashionable mobile phones, computer devices, a large flat TV, a foreign car. What nonsense. Rent trash. A couple of minutes of fake happiness. You will not remember them if you suddenly find out that you have about an hour to live.
Someday you will step over the last line, leaving it all here. The film of your life (the director, screenwriter and the main actor of which you are) someone infinitely large and infinitely kind will put on fast playback. What will he see? Persons, cities, deeds? Or just shop windows, TV screen and the ceiling above the sofa?
Knocking wheels, music in the ears, endless trips and returning home, stupid acts, adventures and breaks, laughter and tears, smiles of a loved one, joy in the eyes of friends.
Tastes, smells and colors. Impressions, feelings and emotions.
This is really yours, inside of you and always will be with you. Just this.

Re-read, when I will once again rush to extremes in search of meaning:
— When I was 20 years old, I had an age crisis. No, not a middle age crisis, it was still far from him at that time, just a crisis. It appeared literally keenly, at that moment when I was engaged in a pleasant one — I chose myself an outfit for some holiday. I was standing in the store in front of the counter with all sorts of nice rags and in my thoughts I was painting how I would look in this or that. And then I suddenly realized that in my old 25, something you can’t wear and have to match. It was not that physically something was wrong with me or I was embarrassed to dress in a certain way, it was just at this moment that I realized myself at another stage in my life.
It’s like if you are sitting on a train and going somewhere, thinking about your everyday life, and then suddenly you realize that you’re already traveling across completely different lands. This is dumbfounded, and you start looking around, looking out the window: when did I miss this line, a sign or a pointer to a transition to another territory? It can not be that these milestones were not. They should have been, I just looked at them. I sat drinking tea or talking with my neighbors in the compartment. And at that time …, in a word, I missed. At that moment I suddenly realized that time really flies and flies by. Damn it, 25 years have passed and I still… And I have NOT.
In my head I began to quickly build up a list of what else is NOT. For some reason, all my achievements and achievements have shrunk and with a crumpled piece of paper stuck between NOT. I left the store without a purchase, because my mood was spoiled and I did not want a holiday. What the hell holidays and outfits, when so many NOT. It is NOT to do this, but something important, special, something that does not fly through your fingers. After all, how many people are 25 ALREADY, and I am NOT. Where are my 25 years old? Where did I lose them?
And I began to look for time sinks — TV, entertainment books, crosswords, phone chatter, empty shopping spins. I will not say that I strongly indulged in these vices before, but at that time it seemed to me that I was criminally burning my time for various nonsense. Frankly, I was afraid that in another 10—20 years I would wake up from the life of everyday trance somewhere in the store, but not in a boutique, but in some bakery with a shopping bag, and I’m terrified that life has passed and the list is NOT lost over the horizon. It is surprising that at that moment it seemed to me that I had found the truth. I despised (albeit only in my heart) people reading love stories, watching TV shows, talking about neighbors, going to watering seedlings on weekends in the garden.
How can you live! They lose their precious time on the little things and life, on the damn tomatoes, which in 70% do not give a normal crop in our area. We must not live like that. We must strive for something eternal and true, struggling with routine and routine. I do not know how much this would be delayed if it were not for the work. On duty, I talked to many people about their lives, and they talked a lot about how satisfied they were with her, what happened and what didn’t happen in their lives.
It turned out that people in their 60—70 estimated the fullness and satisfaction with their lives quite differently, as it seemed to me in my 25. No matter who did what and what — worked at the factory on a conveyor belt, connecting 20 years of detail A with detail B, or saved someone’s life. The only important thing was whether they could enjoy their life or not. If you have the ability to catch the beauty of every moment, the growth of a tomato bush turns into a wonderful action and you can feel like a magician, well, and if you do not know how to do it, do not blame me — the whole life will seem like a mediocre clownery.
Often on her deathbed, a grandmother from a deaf village, having spent her whole life in a hard, monotonous work, was more satisfied with her earthly way than any other person of anything. You can poke into serials, pornography, gossips, etc., that poison the beauty of life, corrupt, corrode consciousness… But it’s only you, your perception. No one will eat you if you are an adult and do not want to be eaten away.
It is impossible, enclosing yourself from bytovuhi, fill your life with meaning. These are completely different processes. No one can get a crop in his garden, corroding all pests, but not planting seeds in the ground. The fact is that the hefty part of our life is the bytkuha, and it will crawl into all the cracks, as it doesn’t hide from it. Any lesson can turn into it. Even, probably, to Batman, at a certain stage, salvation began to seem a routine over the years. Who knows, maybe he just plunged into warm pajamas in bed, as he saw the silhouette of a bat on the Moon and got up from bed annoyed with the words: «In hell, I gave them this spotlight! I need to unscrew the light bulb for them at night. sleep is not allowed.»
Life consists of trifles and trifles, vulgarity and filth, it is sometimes just disgusting, and sometimes beautiful. This is a continuous stream of events, which only we give the interpretation. A person can not live without these interpretations, it is the essence of his interaction with others. One has only to remember this when you assess the environment.
You can not take some people, do not understand them — we are all different, but to assume that someone is someone in something is stupid. You can be the same life empty and gnawing seeds on the bench at the entrance, and drinking awesomely expensive cognac in a glamorous restaurant. Drawing a child with cerebral palsy can be 1000 times more significant for others than a picture of a fashion artist. And tell me, who will be happier in their 60s? Whose life will be filled with events, but not routine? Even if a sick child all his life looked «Carmelit» in a wheelchair, and the artist took for himself only the best and most refined.
Crises happen to us at every age and sometimes we make idiotic conclusions about life. Their idiocy sometimes becomes available to us after many years. And God forbid we understand this and change.
Only one moment is important. During a crisis, it is not war that is to be sought, but peace, especially internal, some kind of consensus that will help us accept the changes that are happening to us. Even when it seems that the world is attacking you, in fact, you often attack it yourself, and it has to defend itself. This war can drag on for many years and become your personal bytovuha and routine, and in 60 years it will seem that everything that was important slipped between the fingers, between battles with serials, vulgarity and frustration.

— You have a disease, which, unfortunately, is now in vogue and that you meet every day with intelligent people. Doctors, of course, know nothing about it. It is akin to moral insanity, it can also be called individualism or imaginary loneliness.
Modern books are full of this. A fantasy has moved into you, as if you are alone, no one is interested in you, no one understands you.
To whom this disease is already sitting, several disappointments are enough to make him believe that there is no relationship at all between him and other people, except misunderstandings, and that every person, in essence, walks through life in absolute loneliness, that he never become truly understandable to others, there is nothing to share with them and it is impossible to have anything in common.
It even happens that such patients become arrogant and consider all other healthy people, who are still able to understand or love each other, for herd animals. If this disease had become universal, mankind would inevitably become extinct.

Every morning, waking up, we get a loan in the amount of 86,400 seconds of life per day, and when we fall asleep in the evening, the stock disappears, and what was not lived for the day — was gone. Every morning, the magic begins on a new one, we are again given a loan of 86,400 seconds. And we play by the rule, which is impossible to get around: the bank can close the account at any time without warning. Life can stop at any second. What do we do with our daily 86,400 seconds?

When you plant a salad, and it grows poorly, you do not blame the salad. You are looking for a reason. Perhaps you need more fertilizer or more water, or less sun. But you will not blame the salad. However, when problems arise with our friends or family, we blame the other person. But if we know how to deal with such situations, things will go for good things.
The accusation does not bring any positive results at all; it is also useless to try to convince another person using arguments and reasoning. Neither accusation, nor reasoning, nor arguments, only understanding each other
Because if you understand and you can show that you understand, you can love, and the situation will change.

Draw, sing, dance and write as much as you can. You need to listen to your heart. Always and everywhere — not only in terms of creativity, but also in terms of life. Be yourself a guiding star. No one has the right to indicate to you. You had to catch and rekindle your life. When it comes to the realization that «my life is in my hands,» amazing things happen — dreams and goals appear, and all the same ways of fulfilling them, and no «do things for me», «help me», «somehow itself is solved», you clearly understand. Do not hope for a plan for your happiness. «Only I can make myself happy.» Think about it and act.

One day you ask for advice: how is it peculiar to people and how is it rash! To give advice to a person who asks what to do with his life is to have something very close to egomania. Point the person to the correct main goal — to send a trembling finger in the right direction — only a fool will take on this responsibility.
I am not a fool, but I respect the sincerity with which you ask my advice. I beg you, reading my words, remember that all the advice is a product of the person who gives them. What is true for one can turn into trouble for another. I do not see life with your eyes, and you do not see it with mine. If I tried to give you specific advice, it would be as if the blind lead the blind.
«To be or not to be, that is the question.
It is worthy to humble ourselves under the blows of fate,
Ile must resist
And in a mortal fight with a whole sea of misfortunes …».
The question really looks like this: is it worth it to simply go with the flow, or is it necessary to go to the goal? This is a choice that each of us, consciously or unconsciously, must make at some point in their life. So few people understand this! Think of any decision ever made that has affected your future. I may be mistaken, but I suppose the choice, though indirectly, always stood between two things that I mentioned: go with the flow or go towards the goal.
Why not go with the flow if you have no goal? This is another question. Undoubtedly, it is better to enjoy swimming than to swim in suspense. But how does a person find a goal? Not an air castle in the clouds, but something real and tangible. How can a person be sure that this is not «caramel rocks» (translator’s note: in the original «big rock candy mountain», the name of the song by Harry McClintock), an alluring sweet goal that has little taste and little sense?
The answer and, in a sense, the tragedy of life is that we seek to understand the goal, not the person. We set ourselves a task that requires certain actions: and we are doing it. But we are adapting to the requirements of a concept that is losing strength. Suppose in your youth you wanted to be a firefighter. I am more than sure that you no longer want to be. Why? Because your views have changed. Not the fireman has changed, and you are different. Each person is the sum of his reactions to life experience. With new and greater impressions, you become a different person, and, consequently, your views change. It goes on and on. Each reaction is a learning process; every significant impression changes your mind.
How foolish would it be to constantly adjust your life to meet the requirements of the goal that we look at every day from different angles? What, then, do we hope to make aside from a jumping neurosis?
Hence, the answer is that one does not have to deal with goals, at least with substantial ones. To thoroughly paint this topic, it would take a pack of paper. God only knows how many books have been written on the topic «the meaning of human life» and the like, and only God knows how many people have been thinking about this topic. There is little point in my attempt to tell about it in two words, since I am the first to be ready to admit that there is no preparation in order to reduce the meaning of life to one or two points.
I will stay away from the term «existentialism», but bear in mind that this is a kind of key. Try reading «Genesis and Nothing» by Jean-Paul Sartre or a small piece called Existentialism from Dostoevsky to Sartre. These are just suggestions. But if you are satisfied with who you are and what you do, then move these books away. (Do not wake the sleeping dog.) But back to the answer. As I said, our commitment to a material goal seems unreasonable at best. Therefore, we do not strive to be either firefighters, bankers, policemen or doctors. We strive to be ourselves.
But don’t get me wrong. I do not mean that we cannot be firefighters, bankers or doctors. I mean that we should set goals that are appropriate to our personality, and not make the person fit the goal. In each person, heredity and the environment are combined to produce a creature with certain abilities and desires, including a deep-rooted need to work in such a way that their lives are meaningful. A person must be someone; it should matter.
As I understand it, the formula works like this: a person must choose a path that will allow his abilities to be realized with maximum efficiency towards satisfying his own desires. At the same time, it satisfies the needs (showing its personality, works in accordance with the template towards the goal set) and avoids trouble in the way of realizing its potential (choosing a path that does not limit it in self-development). At the same time, he avoids the fear of seeing how his goal loses its charm as he approaches it (does not adjust itself to meet the demands of what he is looking for, but bends his goal to match his abilities and desires).
In short, he does not devote his life to achieving a predetermined goal, but rather chooses a way of life that he knows for sure will give him pleasure. The goal is completely secondary: the process of moving towards the goal is key. It seems almost ridiculous to say that a person should act according to a template that he chose for himself. If you allow another person to define your goals, it means to give up one of the most important aspects of life — the act of will, which makes a person a person.
Let’s assume that you have a choice of eight paths (all of which, of course, are predetermined). And let’s assume that you don’t see a real goal in any of them. Then — and this is the essence of all that I have said — you must find the ninth path.
Naturally, this is not as easy as it sounds. You had a relatively limited life, you led a vertical, not a horizontal existence. Therefore, it is easy to understand how you feel. But a person who is slow with a choice will get a choice made by circumstances.
Therefore, if you are now among the disappointed, then you have nothing left but to accept everything as it is, or seriously look for something else. But beware of finding a target. Instead, look for a lifestyle. Decide how you want to live, and then see what you can do to earn a living within such a lifestyle. But you will say: «I do not know where to look, I do not know what to look for.»
And that’s the point. Should I give up what I have to look for something better? I do not know whether this is so? Who can make that decision besides you? But even deciding to start a search, you will go a long way to your choice.
If I don’t stop, I’ll write a book. I hope that this is not as confusing as it seems at first glance. Keep in mind that this is my view of things. I think that it is quite applicable in general, but you can disagree. Each of us must create our own beliefs — I have stated our own.
If any part of them seems to you to have no meaning, be sure to turn my attention to this. I’m not trying to send you on the search for Valhalla, but only point out that there is no need to accept the choice imposed on you by life. No one is obliged to do the rest of his life what he does not want. But again, if what you are doing inspires you, then by all means convince yourself that you must do this. You will not be alone.

— Want to know the formula for success? She is elementary. It is only necessary to double the number of failures. You think failure is the enemy of success. But this is not at all the case. It is your choice to fail or learn from them. So go ahead and make mistakes. Do whatever you can. You can succeed.

— Nothing in the world can be replaced by perseverance. He cannot be replaced by talent — you will not meet anyone as often as a talented loser. He cannot be replaced by genius — unrecognized geniuses are almost included in the proverb. Education alone is not enough either — the world is full of educated outcasts. Only perseverance and determination are omnipotent. The phrase «work on» was and remains the solution to all the problems of the human race.

«Look for people who are passionate, strong, happy… They are like stars, until you lift your head you will not see.» And when you drown your eyes in stellar milk — you understand how many of them there are.
Look for your people.
They are also scared and hurt. They also have dark days, mistakes and breakdowns. But they are ready to go through fear, they influence the course of things, they set the pace of life. They are in something better, in something worse. They do not envy and do not complain. They gratefully receive gifts of fate and love themselves for the fact that luck smiles upon them.
Look for the faithful and honest.
Who will not hide anger and tears for hypocrisy and a smirk. They say they think. Let it sometimes be unpleasant, even sometimes right in the heart. But honestly. Not from evil, but from love. Who sincerely rejoice, laugh loudly and freely, melodiously and contagiously. Who do not hide and do not hesitate their fun.
Look for those you can love forever.
Look for those who are waiting for your love. With which you merge the two lakes and get the sea. Look for those who have a lot of life. Look for ringing and juicy, with smeshinkami and wrinkles. Look in the parks and on the stages, sad and funny, small and big. They are little children, they go through life with faith in good, but they see everything, of course, both black and white, but they live for the sake of yellow, red, blue… Look for them. You just need to raise your head.

Why do we see loneliness as something extremely negative? How should something end up faster?
Fear is a terrible thing. Because of him, we are not left with the one who is close to the soul, but with the one who turned out to be next time when he covered.
Beside. And this is the main point.
No, not the main thing. You can not stay close to a person simply because he saves from loneliness. It smells like self-deception.
Then let it be a wedge wedge.
Often stay alone, listen to your desires, do self-education, body, health. Feel the growth, find out your character, realize a few ideas. Let even small. Become self-sufficient. To achieve that it became interesting to be in a society of itself.
Everything has its time.
If you are now lonely and sad, then I am writing for you. With you all the way. I believe that you will still be great. Believe and go
your way

— I have always been surprised by people asking what all this is for, where it makes sense, why we live. We live for a cup of hot tea after frost. We live for the embrace of a loved one in a moment of longing. We live for a dance by the sea under a starry sky. We live for the music, from which the goosebumps run. For laughter to tears. For the sake of a carefree game of snowballs. For the satiating hair of the wind. For the sake of the paintings coming to life on the canvases. For a restful and deep sleep. For the hit on the face of raindrops. For the rays of the morning sun. For the sake of pleasant tiredness from the work done. And for the sake of a million other things that we wouldn’t have if we didn’t live. But we live. And life is the most beautiful thing that could happen to us.
