Great Quotation - Great Advice

Meaning in ancient Babylon, ca 2700 BC

"Siduri said, 'Gilgamesh, where are you roaming?

You will never find the eternal life that you seek...Savour your food, make each of your days a delight, ... let music and dancing fill your house, love the child who holds you by the hand and give your wife pleasure in your embrace.'"

-- Epic of Gilgamesh

somehow, it says everything that needs to be said in these times of woe & disaster. i guess those times have always been... and will ever be.
