Living a good life

Living a good life is like running a marathon over rough terrain. We know where the finish line is, but we can't be expected to run the whole way at the same speed. There will be days of apathy, of boredom, of numbness. And on those days we need to make sure we stay awake and alert. So long as we engage our brains, there's a sweetness in even the most trivial distraction that can awaken our sleeping hearts. Bernard of Clairvaux (1090 - 1153)
