Leisure & Art

How we utilize our leisure
Defines our intellectual altitude
Better than our achievements;
We evince our art of living
During leisure activities
More than during work.

Obligations & Enlightenment

Going to obligations
When we don’t fee like it
Sometimes brings our souls
Closer to enlightenment
And farther from bias.

Young & Old

To think young
One must remember
That everything old
Was once young
And beautiful
And vital.

Dependent & Independent

Some are only happy
If they are independent
And serve a worthy cause;
Others are happy as dependents
Even when they burden society.

Deranged & Harm

No society
Has ever found ways
To reduce the harms caused
By its deranged elements.

MInd & Balance

An active mind
Is its own best entertainment;
A passive mind
Thrives on entertainment by others;
A balanced mind
Entertains itself and loves to be entertained.

Privacy & Isolation

Nurturing a social circle furnishes us with ideas
Which, otherwise, would not occur to us;
The effort to remain socially connected
Is compensated by a rich harvest of notions
And a wealth of emotional chords
That entertain and enlighten
The aloneness of isolation
And the loneliness of privacy.
