		<description><![CDATA[With experience, I do not see things more simply but realize that they are more complex than we can grasp.

		<description><![CDATA[How many possibilities are there to think? To behave? To see? To imagine? Most of us would have trouble putting a number to this question. How gallant we are when we don&#8217;t need to be! How we answer this question when we are content is unimportant. When life throws us challenges, when doors close or [...]]]></description>
