If you listen, you will hear the music.

The birds fly in the sky but they don't leave any footprints.

lives in such a way that he leaves no footprints.

there is no point. He has lived that moment so totally
that what is the need to look back again and again?
He never looks ahead, he never looks back, he lives in the moment.

to choose one's own way.
