I think you can never know what you can live without. I think you can never know what you will live through. Only when the disaster arrives and you are there does the depth of your real inner resources reveal itself, and not a moment before

You never know what is enough unless you know what is more than enough.

And what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life itself? That is why life is always like a sketch.
