Unbearable lightness of being

not knowing what we want is actually quite natural. we never know what to want, because living only one life we can neither compare it with our previous lives nor perfect it in our live to come.

Is it better to remain with someone or to remain alone?

there is no means of testing which decisions is better, because there is no basis for comparison.

we live everything as it comes, without warning like an actor going on cold.

and what can life be worth if the first rehearsal for life is life Itself?

that is why life is always a "Sketch" is not quite the word for a picture, whereas the sketch that is our life is a sketch for nothing, an outline with no picture, if we have only one life to live, we might as well not have lived at all.
