What do you want to do with your life, then?” is often the question I'm asked. To be honest, I don't know. I really don't. Mainly because I don't see myself living long enough for that to make much of a difference.

About This Quote

The idea that the only thing that matters in life is what you do with it is very discouraging. In fact, most people don't appreciate what they have until someone else is taken from them. That's why we can't see ourselves living long enough to make a difference. We don't know if we'll be around to see a great change or a great disaster.

We don't know if we'll be able to change anything in our lives. Worse yet, we don't even know if we'll make an impact at all. In other words, there's nothing left for us to do but hope for a miracle that might never come.
