There are days you wake up thinking you can juggle the world between your fingers, and other days you wake up feeling the air around you intoxicates you to a point where you can no longer leave the premises of your bed. The nights in between, you shuffle between being a warrior and a slave; wondering whether you want to lose yourself to win the world, or lose the world to win yourself.
– Mohamed Kassem
“[T]o lose yourself to win the world, or lose the world to win yourself.” I believe that is the choice many must ultimately make. Thanks for sharing such an evocative passage.

I will always go for the latter though not an easy choice to make both in theory and in practice.
