“It is not everyone who dies that actually lived. And of those who live, only a few are alive.

Those who live get to make a living from doing what they love or don't love to do.

But those who are alive, they give to make a life from being who they were meant to be.

So live, know, do and get - if you only want to make a living.

But be alive, be wise, become and give - if you really want to make a life.”
― Olaotan Fawehinmi
