"Remember to look up at the stars and now down at your feet.Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious and however difficult life may seem there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don't just give up." - Stephen Hawking
A traveler in the mountains found a precious stone in a stream. The next day the individual encountered another traveler who was hungry.
The discoverer of the stone opened a bag to share food. The hungry traveler saw the precious stone and asked to have it instead of food.
The first traveler gave it away without hesitation.
The second traveler left. rejoicing his good fortune. The stone would provide a lifetime of security.
A few days later the second traveler returned to the first traveler's camp and said. "I have been thinking. I know how valuable the stone is. I return it to you in the hope that you can give me something even more precious. Show me what you have within you that enabled you to give me the stone."
Stay curious.
Consider the stone within you.
It matters that you don't give up.
