Topic: THE
UNKNOWN
Why explore new principles and ideas?
"What is the use of going over the old track again?
You must make tracks unto the unknown."
-- Henry David Thoreau
Isn't the unknown full of frightening hazards?
"There is always safety in valour."
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
What is the nature of the unknown future towards
which I will be heading?
"Do not require a description of the countries towards
which you sail. The description does not describe
them to you, and tomorrow you will arrive there and
know them by inhabiting them."
-- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Comment: The great unknown, the veil that drops down at death, has been torn open, and on
the other side is glory land.
Why is change in my life necessary?
"He who learns the rules of wisdom, without conforming
to them in his life, is like a man who labours in his field,
but did not sow."
-- Saadi
Comment: If you never changed you would still be a newborn. Whether you change is never a
question, for you do. The question should be how you change and in the change are you
getting better or bitter.
