SIDDHARTHA

If you feel that your literary attempts help you to see yourself and see the world with a clearer vision and that what you wrote sharpens your determination to enter the thick of life and clears the metal of your conscience, then stick to the place of literature; and it does not matter if you become a writer or not; the important thing is that what you wrote will make you a human being aware of your value in life, an attentive person, sharp-eyed; but if you discover that writing literature and enjoying it will stand as a stumbling block in your life’s journey, even in the narrowest of limits, and that it will tempt you to take side roads, the end of which is vanity and dull feelings, then read all the poems and texts, and everything you wrote, but rather all that we've all written, behind your back.
