Every thing that you do will be insignificant 

it is important that you do it

"We live as separate beings, especially in the Western culture, separate from each other and separate from the earth. We may even believe that we can discern the boundaries between  the material world and ourselves, between the visible and the unseen. But none can say where the line is that divides inner from outer. Where do I begin? Where do I end? Where do I belong?

My life is made of countless journeys from 'here' to 'there'--- from this step to the next step as I walk across the room, from parents hearth to other shelters and commitments,  from one segment of time to another. Every displacement reveals an intermediate zone, which because it is neither here not there, is an encounter with the unique. In this place the extraordinary may touch the ordinary, but the opportunity has to be recognized. What is the experience of that transition? What do I leave behind and what do I discover on crossing the thresh hold from this moment, this place, to the next moment, a new place?" R Solnit from Wanderlust
