PERMANENCE


There comes a time in your life, when you realize that everything is temporary unless you work hard to make it permanent.

Nobody tells you what to do beside yourself.

You can complain in and out of everyday but you wouldn’t complain, unless you wanted it.

Giving up is too easy.

Everyday we look for permanence in relationships, careers, friends - the security.

We want to feel secure with ourselves.

We want happiness and strength and love to be permanent.

In the end, we are all working toward one common goal.

Permanence in our self structure, the sun to our earth.
