Surviving – Duty to live

I quoted some lines from Haruki Murakami in a post years ago. Love reading him and read a few lines today which lit up and spoke to me

“We survived, You and I. And those who survive have a duty. Our duty is to do or best to keep on living. Even if our lives are not perfect.”

What a lovely thought. I survived cancer and have a duty to keep on living. I survived and have a duty to All those who helped me get here. My duty is to them and to myself

(From Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki – Murakami 2014)

As part of living I’ve enrolled in a course for ‘Creative Writing’. A motivation is to do justice to my (sometimes) self-centred blogs.

Expect a change of tack hopefully.

Be kind to each other. That is the most important.
