If we are only concerned about ourselves, it will be hard to find a genuinely sustaining purpose or goal in life. But if we change our perspective and begin to think about what we can do for others and society, a path forward will open up. In all matters there is a shallow and a profound perspective, including life itself. Do you live for yourself alone, or for a greater purpose and value? It is easy to live thinking only of oneself, but to live for a great ideal requires steadfast commitment and courage. Only when you thoroughly polish your life does your true self become manifest, and the diamond-like brilliance of your individuality shine forth from the depths of your being. Life contains the capacity, like flames that reach toward heaven, to transform suffering and pain into the energy of value-creation, the light that illuminates the dark. Like the wind traversing vast spaces unhindered, life has the power to uproot and overturn all obstacles and difficulties. Like clear flowing water, it can wash away all stains and impurities. True optimism is based on unwavering conviction in our innate human potential.
