“I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn't impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”
― Anais Nin

I learned that the trails and tribulations that we face in life do not vary much generation to generation. The transition from ordinary to extraordinary comes from those who have faith in God and who have the ability to endure. :-)
