The Art of Life.....................
The greatest art is to be silent.
Not just unspeaking with the lips,
But unspeaking with the mind.
When the mind is quiet,
Its whole angle of vision changes.
From pouncing on the problems,
It begins to perceive the chances,
The good things in life:
And, in that discrimination
Which comes from silence,
Lie all other arts.
The arts that make life a pleasure
And a challenge;
Like how to talk to each other,
Entertain each other,
Accept each other -
In short, how to be happy
Not just together, but alone.
