Day 31. Reflection -11

This section’s aim was to reflect on the larger aspects of life. All want to achieve serenity and tranquillity , at the end of the day or the evening of life.

For this one must strive . It is like saving for the old age, one should start early.  Similarly, one must acquire good memories, especially when one reaches the old age. 

Constantly remembering that "This Too Shall Pass Away" will help much to remain focused.

The following classic- mere reading of it - will help to rejoice with memories.

I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud by William Wordsworth

I wandered lonely as a cloud

That floats on high o'er vales and hills,

When all at once I saw a crowd,

A host, of golden daffodils;

Beside the lake, beneath the trees,

Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

 

Continuous as the stars that shine

And twinkle on the milky way,

They stretched in never-ending line

Along the margin of a bay:

Ten thousand saw I at a glance,

Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

 

The waves beside them danced; but they

Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:

A poet could not but be gay,

In such a jocund company:

I gazed—and gazed—but little thought

What wealth the show to me had brought:

 

For oft, when on my couch I lie

In vacant or in pensive mood,

They flash upon that inward eye

Which is the bliss of solitude;

And then my heart with pleasure fills,

And dances with the daffodils.( Internet)

Reading of good poems, will help to focus on the spiritual path more easily. More so, when such poems are easily accessible on the net.

An eye and  love for poetry can be cultivated at any age. The rewards will be immense.

Be happy . Be safe.
