An idea worth spreading

The whole world runs on incentives. Everything we see around us and everything we do revolves around attaining those incentives. But I believe that people chase the wrong incentive, money.
Money is perishable, can be gained or lost unlike knowledge that once gained remains. It has enabled people to chase careers that fetch them more money and has turned us into insatiable slaves who are on the road to self-destruction.
Instead why not chase knowledge? Let us quench our thirst for knowledge, edify ourselves about everything we wanted to know, address our curiosities, be creative, utilize our talents, discover ourselves, travel, explore diverse cultures, learn new skills, languages, art, et al. The canvas is yours to paint. Make it as colorful as possible. You only have so many tomorrows to do it in. Achieve your childhood dreams, finish your bucket list unlike most people because if you don’t, who will? For life is a novel, make it interesting, ..finish your story. Be a seeker.
