“What’s the purpose of being born into this world, suffering, responding to the suffering, but in the end nobody knows and nobody cares?”

“But you know, don’t you?”

“So what if I know? Doesn’t make any difference to anyone.”

“It’s made a difference to you right?

“Yes, but so what if it’s made a difference to me? Is that all there is to life? To suffer for so many years, to lead such a sad, lonely life, just to be witnessed by one or two people around you?

“Isn’t that true for most of us, unless you are the rich and famous? Don’t all our lives get witnessed by just one or two people around us? That’s life, and life is always flowing, moving forward, history is about moving forward, not just about the past.”

— The Sound of Sch, Danielle Lim (2014)
