Life

  30 Things About Life I Wish I Had Known 10 Years Ago Like why it’s important to be a leader and how to lighten up. Darius Foroux   quotes from above article: Here are 30 of those reminders that others taught me. Struggle Is Good Never say “I can’t take it anymore.” Say “Bring it on!” Don’t Complain Complaining is the biggest waste of time there is. Either do something about it, and if you can’t, shut up about it. Spend Time With People You Love That’s your family and best friends. If you don’t have a family, create one.

Life story: Franz Kafka and the girl with missing doll

  At 40, Franz Kafka (1883-1924), who never married and had no children, walked through the park in Berlin when he met a girl who was crying because she had lost her favorite doll. She and Kafka searched for the doll unsuccessfully. Kafka told her to meet him there the next day and they would come back to look for her.

I will write to you about my adventures." Thus began a story which continued until the end of Kafka's life. During their meetings, Kafka read the letters of the doll carefully written with adventures and conversations that the girl found adorable. Finally, Kafka brought back the doll (he bought one) that had returned to Berlin. "It doesn't look like my doll at all," said the girl. Kafka handed her another letter in which the doll wrote: "my travels have changed me....
