The hard questions

A friend once told me, and I heartily agree, that one must read the exploits of people whose lives one could have lived, in this life or the next. Once you fantasized of being a journalist. The written word would have been, could still be your tool to educate and seek justice. I hope that you do not let go of this fantasy, even as you walk a different path.

Often, mundane details bog me down, mediocre, uninspired work occupy my time. It becomes crucial to let go, center myself, ask myself the hard questions that I am in danger of forgetting. I hope that you never forget the hard questions.
