Are children naïve and are adults wise? When you ask yourself what is normal and what is not, you realize that all you think you know is relative. Theft is a sin to the saint, but to the thief it’s his profession. To the sighted every sunrise is a future but to the sightless it’s a memory. Money is God to some and colorful pieces of paper to others. But most relative of everything is time. No one really knows it, yet everyone lives with the illusion that they possess it. Where does balance rest and is there a golden mean? How do we find our way to the truth about the Universe? The path is short: just close your eyes and look with your heart.Do not live as though every day is your last but rather as you have just arrived and eternity is lying ahead of you!Let your heart lead you on, have no fear but just dream.It’s not difficult at all – every child does it.
