Maxim-I

Stumbled across this very wise maxim while watching the movie, 'Into the Wild.'

The sea's only gifts are harsh blows, and occasionally the chance to feel strong. Now I don't know much about the sea, but I do know that that's the way it is here. And I also know how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong but to feel strong. To measure yourself at least once. To find yourself at least once in the most ancient of human conditions. Facing the blind death stone alone, with nothing to help you but your hands and your own head. 

 I suggest you take some time out by shoveling aside all those hefty responsibilities you cater to and reflect upon the dire need to revolutionize your very own self. Each one of us has a world of its own, a raging sea within, howling at us, scaring us to smithereens but only to our advantage. If only we realize.
