Hello Debaters!

Each week there'll be a new quote for you guys to think about and share what you think the quote means. The best meaning will be given a surprise!😃

So here's this week's quote:

"The best things in life are nearest: Breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of right just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life's plain, common work as it comes, certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things in life."

-Robert Louis Stevenson

So what do you think?😊

-Shelly

Note: Since there is a lot of confusion about what you are supposed to do, here is some clarification.Please share your opinions and thoughts on the quote above. The one with the best opinion, will get a surprise. Your thoughts need not be in the form of a quote.😊
