A young man went to visit a sage(智者)living deep in the mountains for the wisdom(智慧)of life. “Excuse me! Could you please tell me what is the most important day in our lives?” the young man asked. “The most important day in our lives is today,” the sage replied calmly.

So work hard to celebrate the greatest festival in life. It is: Today!”
The young man still wanted to ask something, but the sage stopped him and said, “When we are talking about the meaning of today, we have missed a lot of it.” The young man agreed and then went down the mountain.
