  17. IV. Morals +++ Then there should be some law - a human internal one which is designed for the good and bad - +++ There should be a source of this God?!!

  25. VI. The After Life ++ I couldn’t, I can’t get all my wishes in such a life ++ Life is too short to know and enjoy everything in it – I wish life would never end + How about if you find somebody who have it and can also give it!??
