Insightful quote from Pico Iyer

It's only when we stop and step out of our lives that we can take stock of our lives----and find out how happy we really are.It's only when we walk back from the canvas that we can see the larger picture.It's only when you cease doing what you were programmed to do,that you can find what you are meant to do.-Pico Iyer,2015 speech at USC.
