Memorization is not education.
Success is a fixed point,
Success is not happiness.
Fame is not acceptance.
Your destiny is not defined by any book,
Unless you allow it to be.
Books do not define your destiny,
Unless you allow them to.
What happens beyond death can not be known,
It can not be known what happens beyond death.
I am whoever I am,.
And you are whoever you are.

Success is not happiness.
Fame is not acceptance.
Your destiny is not defined by any book,
Unless you allow it to be.
Books do not define your destiny,
Unless you allow them to.
What happens beyond death can not be known,
It can not be known what happens beyond death.
I am whoever I am,.
And you are whoever you are.
