It shouldn't take a life-changing event for you to change your life.

You do not need to change people. Simply pull back the curtain obscuring their view of the truth and let them stare. Common sense, compassion and kindness will take it from there.

Time spent doing whatever it is you do to escape your daily life would be better spent acquiring a life that needs no escape.

At some point your candle will go out, so make use of the light.
