I don't know. The problem with the rat race is even if you win, you're still a rat. Life is like a box of chocolates, someone has probably already fingered yours. Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we're here we should dance. The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple.
Light travels faster than sound.
This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. He who laughs last thinks slowest. Time is what keeps everything from happening at once. We are born naked, wet and hungry. Then things get worse.
