For what will it profit a man,
if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life?
A group of tourists sits in a bus
that is passing through gorgeously beautiful country;
lakes and mountains and green fields and rivers.
But the shades of the bus are pulled down.
They do not have the slightest idea of what lies
beyond the windows of the bus.
And all the time of their journey is spent in squabbling over
who will have the seat of honor in the bus,
who will have the seat of honor in the bus,
who will be applauded,
who will be well considered.
And so they remain till the journey's end.
From The Way to Love
