From My Point Of View

“One can feel at times like a spinning leaf
blown along a dirty street, one can feel like a
grain of sand stuck in one place. But nobody
has said that life was a calm and orderly thing:
it isn’t. One isn’t a tattered leaf nor a grain of
sand: one can, to a greater or lesser degree draw
his road map and follow it.
One can feel that things are such now that it
is much too late to do anything, that one’s past
road is so messed up that there is no chance of
drawing a future one that will be any different:
there is always a point on the road when one
can map a new one. And try to follow it. There
is no person alive who cannot make a new
beginning.
It can be said without the slightest fear
of contradiction that others may mock one
and seek by various means to push one onto
the verge, to tempt one in various ways to
lead an immoral life: all such persons do so to
accomplish private ends of their own and one
will wind up, if one heeds them, in tragedy and
sorrow.”
