The great paradox of life is that those who lose their lives will gain
them. This paradox becomes visible in very ordinary situations. If we
cling to our friends, we may lose them, but when we are nonpossessive
in our relationships, we will make many friends. When fame is what we
seek and desire, it often vanishes as soon as we acquire it, but when
we have no need to be known, we might be remembered long after our
deaths. When we want to be in the center, we easily end up on the
margins, but when we are free enough to be wherever we must be, we find
ourselves often in the center.
Giving away our lives for others is the greatest of all human arts. This will gain us our lives.
