"There is one thing that you must never forget to do.
If you forget everything else and not this,
There is nothing to worry about,
But if you remember everything else,
And not this,
Then you will have done nothing in your life.
It is as if a king has sent you to some country to
do a task
And you perform a hundred other services,
But not the one he sent you to do.
So human beings come to this world to do a
particular work.
That work is the purpose, and each is specific to the person."
