Potential

"You're alive. That means you have infinite potential. You can do anything, make anything, dream anything. If you change the world, the world will change.

Potential.

Once you're dead, it's gone. Over. You've made what you've made, dreamed your dream, written your name. You may be buried, you may even walk. But that potential is finished."


- Silas to Nobody Owens, The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman



Potential. Makes a good new year's resolution, don't you think? Fits all those clichés too: "realise your potential", "unleash your potential"... The perks of being alive -- the thought of what you do in your lifetime, really does matter.
