Most of my friends, have degrees. 
That doesnt mean that they've managed to find the kind of work they wanted.
Not at all.

They went to university because someone, 
at a time when universities were important, said that, in order to rise in the world, 
you had to have a degree.

And thus the world was deprived of some excellent gardeners,
bakers, antique dealers, sculptors, and writers. 
Perhaps this is the moment to review the situation. 
Doctors, engineers, scientists, and lawyers need to go to university,
but does everyone?
When life makes us face difficult situations—
such as a personal loss—
we have to understand 
that eternity is taking 
one more step.
I don't regret the painful times; 
I bare my scars as if they were medals.
Freedom is not the absence of commitments, 
but the ability to choose--and 
commit myself to--
what is best for me.
...in all the woods and forests,
God did not create a single leaf
the same as any other… 
People go against nature
because they lack 
the courage to be different.
...it was dangerous to overflow 
because we might end up finding ourselves occupied 
by our loved ones and drowning them 
with our love and enthusiasm.
If you start by promising 
what you don't even have yet, 
you'll lose your desire to work towards, 
getting it.
