If you want to live a memorable life, you have to be the kind of person who remembers to remember.

Our lives are the sum of our memories. How much are we willing to lose from our already short lives by … not paying attention?

To live with all my might, while I do live

People make me feel like I have a problem because I haven't had a kid yet.

I think in an ideal world, one would be able to do everything, however, we don't live in an ideal world.

I don't fear death because I believe it is a transition. Our souls can't be destroyed. I know we are going to live in another life.
