"The
important thing to hold in mind is that all of our energies must not be
consumed in merely getting through the day or the week. In the living of our
lives from day to day we must be geared to goals or purposes that inform the
character of all our activities. Our living must be structured by what it is
that we are trying to achieve with our lives…. What will be the extent of a
man’s life he does not know—in what time or place he will come to an end is not
given to him to know. The wise man, therefore, lives his life seriously each
day but does not take it seriously." ~ Howard Thurman (The Inward Journey)
