Ultimate Life Skill

Ultimate Life Skill is a small handle on a large fact. Grip it, and the fact becomes easier to carry.

Strip it to the floor and you find an old instruction: look carefully, judge slowly, act decently. The new name exists because the old instruction keeps being forgotten.

At the bus stand in a small town, goodbyes are long and arrivals are loud. Both are correct. A life is measured by how seriously it takes each.

In the end, life asks only whether we were awake while it happened. Print it on a card if you like. Better: print it on a habit.
