My house says to me, “Do not leave me, for here dwells your past.”
And the road says to me, “Come and follow me, for I am your future.”
And I say to both my house and the road, “I have no past, nor have I a future.” If I stay here, there is a going in my staying; and if I go there is a staying in my going. Only love and death change all things.”
Our mind is a sponge; our heart is a stream. Is it not strange that most of us choose sucking rather than running?

Recently discovered amongst my parent’s collection of old-world literature under a blanket of dust, which I profoundly enjoyed reading and found surprisingly enlightening. Liberal arts is cool!!!
