Uzmi osmeh i daruj ga onome ko ga nikad nije imao. Uzmi zrak sunca i učini da odleti tamo gde vlada noć. Otkrij izvor i okupaj onoga ko živi u blatu. Uzmi suzu i položi je na lice onoga ko nikad nije plakao. Uzmi hrabrost i stavi je u dušu onoga ko se ne sme boriti. Otkrij život i pripovedaj o njemu onome ko ga ne može shvatiti. Uzmi nadu i živi u njenoj svetlosti. Uzmi dobrotu i daruj je onome ko ne zna darivati. Otkrij ljubav i pokaži je čitavom svetu. ↗

My pen.’ Funny, I wrote that without noticing. ‘The torch’, ‘the paper’, but ‘my pen’. That shows what writing means to me, I guess. My pen is a pipe from my heart to the paper. It’s about the most important thing I own. ↗
