An Endless Cycle
The thoughts and cares of each generation are repeated again and again by the next. An endless cycle of humanity’s joys and fears, forgotten to history yet continuing forever.

Change is the constant state of the universe, and what gives it meaning. It’s always growing, always evolving — and how you view it depends on your perspective.
You’re an actor in a play — you aren’t actually the playwright. Your mission is to accept the character you’ve been assigned, and fulfill that role to the best of your ability.
It is possible to go eye to eye with the rich and powerful — but it isn’t money, position, or reputation that will get you there.
If you’ve had good fortune, there’s no guarantee that your luck will continue. All you can be certain of is that fate is always twisting.
It’s common to think that we control our own destinies. The truth is that we don’t, and the sooner we accept that, the sooner we can live in peace.
Why do people say that “change is good”? Because naturally we dread change, and we tend to automatically assume it’s bad. News flash: it’s neither.
We accept anything a doctor says as “doctor’s orders”. What if we said the same when nature dials up something unpleasant for us?
The future is going to happen how it’s going to happen, whether you like it or not. Why not match up what you want with what’s going to happen?
What if you could love what has already happened, even if you actually wanted something else to happen — and love what will happen in the future too, even if you would prefer something else? What if you could ‘love fate’? Wouldn’t that be easier?
