About This Quote
You have come to earth to entertain and be entertained. The world is a stage where we all play a role. We are given a part, a character, a role to play, a life to live. We are not free to choose our roles or characters or lives.
We are given what we must be and play the part we must play. Each of us is born with a purpose and these purposes are granted us by our parents at birth. We all play our parts in the great drama of life, the life of humanity.
That’s why you can’t always tell who is who within this great play of life. We all blend into one another like paint on an easel, each one adding its specific color to the whole, lending it its own special flavor.
