WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
All men and women are born, live suffer and die.
What distinguished us one from another is our dreams,
whether they be dreams about worldly or unworldly thing,
and what we do to make them come about
We do not choose to be born.
We do not choose our parents.
We do not choose our historical epoch, the country of our birth,
or the immediate circumstances of our upbringing.
We do not – most of us – choose to die;
nor do we choose the time and conditions of our death
but within this realm of choicelessness ,
we do choose how we live.
