Nothing is so fatiguing as the eternal hanging on of an uncompleted task.

I turn myself into a dot and merge with the universe.

The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you are, ever after, secure in your ability to survive. You will never truly know yourself, or the strength of your relationships, until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won, and it has been worth more than any qualification I ever earned.

The aim, if reached or not, makes great the life.
