The chief characteristic of the
specifically human life is that it is
full of events which ultimately can
be told as a story.
—Hannah Arendt, philosopher

LISTEN TO YOUR LIFE
Before you tell your life what you intend to
do with it, listen for what it intends to do with
you. Before you tell your life what truths
and values you have decided to live up to,
let your life tell you what truths you embody,
what values you represent.
