Day 75 - #7

"Heaven is eternal, earth everlasting.
They endure this way because they
do not live for themselves.

In the same way the wise person
puts himself last,
and thereby finds himself first;

Holds himself outside,
and thereby remains at the center;

Abandons himself,
and is thereby fulfilled."

When I was a kid, I came to the conclusion that, "A life lived for others is the only life worth living." I actually wrote it down. I think that was the beginning of every important journey I've ever taken.
