Finished reading a book called Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman. Feynman, the noble prize winner for physics, is a curious character who is always trying out new experiments with life like getting hallucinations, breaking locks & cracking safe codes, getting hypnotized, playing drums and so on - apart from performing the experiments in the physics lab.
This book reminded me that there are so many things in life apart from work one wants to do...and so few of them ever get realized. The experiences of Mr. Feynman have a lot of inspiration for those who lead their life for their work and family - to take out some time for themselves- to try out new things - get new experiences - may not be to the extent of getting hallucinations but surely - the small things which make a big difference - like learning to play a musical instrument or trying hands at a new sport or art form – just to feel that we're growing not only in years but also in knowledge and experiences.
We should be thankful to these people who after living a complete life - think of leaving their experiences for us to get inspired from and also to those who introduce us to their work.
