Afraid of the indecisiveness of life and age, my sons ask me why we were born.

And I have no answer except why did my father give birth to me without asking me?

And my father was given by his father without asking him and his father was given to him by his father without asking him?

The hesitation of life and time was there earlier too,

Even today it is probably more...tomorrow it will be there, maybe more...you keep new leaks,

Ask your sons to produce them."
