王珍

"Ask a flower in the field: ‘Do you feel useful? After all, you do nothing but produce the same flowers over and over?’
3 L( |0 \7 U* g7 r: K( tAnd the flower will answer: ‘I am beautiful, and beauty is my reason for living.’

Ask the river: ‘Do you feel useful, given that all you do is to keep flowing in the same direction?’

Don’t try to be useful. Try to be yourself: that is enough, and that makes all the difference."---paulo coelho
