"Fulfillment is a byproduct of how people engage their tasks, and can’t be pursued directly. Most of us are egotistical and most are self-concerned most of the time, but it’s nonetheless true that life comes to a point only in those moments when the self dissolves into some task. The purpose in life is not to find yourself. It’s to lose yourself."
-David Brooks, NYT columnist
bitaw ate-similar to another quote ..."not all who wander are lost"-life is never about finding ourself-it's about CREATING ourself-everyday... it is an on-going process... from the cradle to the grave-
