have to lose something. Hence, the people who are apprehensive of losing in
every small matter...can never gain something big.

us with the strength to endure that pain. Look for yourself, we are not that

Ester asked why people are sad.
“That’s simple,” says the old man. “They are the prisoners of their personal history. Everyone believes that the main aim in life is to follow a plan. They never ask if that plan is theirs or if it was created by another person. They accumulate experiences, memories, things, other people's ideas, and it is more than they can possibly cope with. And that is why they forget their dreams.”
-Paulo Coelho
