STAGE 2 - DAY 29 - Forgetting whats important
Along the road of life I often forget concepts, ideas and principles. One of the things I forgot was "what does my existence mean and what is really important?" and this poem is RIGHT ON to make me remember again:
"Why do you paint?
For exactly the same reason I breathe.
That’s not an answer.
There isn’t any answer.
How long hasn’t there been any answer?
As long as I can remember.
And how long have you written?
As long as I can remember.
I mean poetry.
So do I."
- e.e. cummings
I stumbled on e.e. cummings again recently when listening to Radical Honesty by Brad Blanton.
Genius. That's the word for the book but I recommend reading/listen to it yourself.
1. Do whatever you want.. risk whatever your gut tells you because.. you know you have good intentions.
2. Pressure forms the man.
3. Clarity gives space for better decisions.
