But lacking this, in future I will relaxedly turn back to my secret mind to see what it has observed when I thought I was sitting this one out. We never sit anything out. We are cups, constantly and quietly being filled. The trick is knowing how to tip ourselves over and let the beautiful stuff out. #Education#Education

5. “ Ray Bradbury:There still are people who will come up to you and say: "Science Fiction? Ha! Why read that?!" The most direct, off-putting reply is: Science fiction is the most important fiction ever invented by writers.

Now, people have pricked up their ears, and opened their eyes. #Pain#Pain

We must earn life once it has been awarded us. Life asks for rewards back because it has favored us with animation.
