“Life does not owe you its justification; rather, you have given life the justification to exist. If no one notices you, love a plant. Nurture it, protect it from storms, protect it from wild creatures and birds, shield it from harsh sunlight, and safeguard it from excessive rainfall. Raise it, let butterflies perch on it. Even if someone else enjoys its fruits, it shouldn't be a cause for concern. Your efforts will never go in vain. You will be granted the justification and reward for staying alive. If nothing else can be done, polish a stone, nurture it, work hard on it, and it will become a mirror of stone. Inside the mirror, the justification of life will be inscribed.”
