EXTRACT FROM THE BOOK
"If you look around, you can not fail to see that life on Earth seems to revolve around the same games being played over and over again. It is all about winning, they say, but, there seems to be an awful lot of losers everywhere; far more than the few who win something, which seems to get lost eventually anyway; especially, when the so-called winners departs from this planet. I don’t exactly know how to make sense of the why we are here, but, I do know that it does not make sense to limit the ‘why’ to physical and material winning if you can not take the winnings with, when you leave. A person could ask the reasonable, like any reasonable visitor should: ‘why?’ So maybe, it is time to sit back, relax, take a deep breath, and re-evaluate the purpose of our visit, with the question:
Did we come here to play or to learn?"
